Preconstruct is a CLI tool that simplifies developing and building JavaScript/TypeScript packages in monorepos. It generates dev-mode entrypoint files so packages can be imported without rebuilding, and builds production bundles with Rollup before publishing.

Use cases

  • set up npm package builds in a monorepo
  • import workspace packages without rebuilding on every change
  • add multiple entrypoints to a package for publishing
  • build flat bundles with rollup before publishing to npm
  • validate package entrypoint configuration in CI
  • develop a single-package repo with production-like dev behavior

When to choose

  • you maintain a JavaScript or TypeScript monorepo with packages published to npm
  • you want dev mode that mirrors production package resolution without rebuilds
  • you need multiple entrypoints per package with correct dist files

When to avoid

  • you build non-JavaScript projects
  • you need bundling features beyond rollup-based package builds, like full app bundling
  • you prefer a zero-config bundler like tsup or unbuild for simple packages
