Reference Files
| Task | File |
|---|---|
| Config file, CLI, entry points | config.md |
| Format, target, dts, exports, validation | output.md |
| Shims, unbundle, watch, frameworks, WASM | features.md |
| Plugins, hooks, lint, programmatic, migration | advanced.md |
Loading Files
Consider loading these reference files based on your task:
- references/config.md - if setting up tsdown.config.ts, CLI, or entry points
- references/output.md - if configuring output format, target, .d.ts, exports, or validation
- references/features.md - if using shims, unbundle, watch mode, framework integrations, or WebAssembly
- references/advanced.md - if writing plugins, using linting/validation, programmatic API, or migrating from tsup
DO NOT load all files at once. Load only what's relevant to your current task.
