## Description

This project is a TypeScript library starter kit that provides a pre-configured development environment for building and publishing typed packages. It establishes a zero-config build pipeline to accelerate the creation of library projects.

The toolkit includes a RollupJS bundle configuration to compile source code into optimized bundles with automatic type definition generation. It integrates a semantic release workflow to manage versioning and changelogs based on conventional commit messages, alongside a Jest testing framework suite for stability verification.

The environment covers code quality enforcement through automated linting and formatting, API documentation generation from source code comments, and the use of git hooks to validate code before commits. It also supports the exclusion of peer dependencies to reduce final package size.
