Book 3 of 4: Creating NPM Package
Synopsis
Updated for 2026
Do you want to publish high-quality JavaScript packages to NPM without struggling with complicated setups or unreliable release scripts?
Creating NPM Package is a hands-on, step-by-step guide that walks you through every stage of building a modern JavaScript library, from setting up your project to automating production releases.
This new edition includes the latest best practices, such as using semantic-release for automated versioning and release notes, setting up secure NPM Trusted Publishing, and a new chapter on making your JavaScript codebase more modular and scalable.
If you’ve ever asked yourself questions like these:
- How should I structure my JavaScript library?
- How do I automate versioning and changelogs without manual work?
