I have created a TypeScript library that has been published to npm using the following structure:
mobx-state-router
|--- package.json
|--- src
| `--- index.ts (TypeScript source)
`--- dist
|--- index.js (compiled JavaScript)
|--- index.js.map (sourcemap)
`--- index.d.ts (type definitions)
I then use this library in a React app by adding a dependency to it. When debugging my React app in Chrome Dev Tools, I would like to add breakpoints in my library. However, Chrome Dev Tools shows me the compiled version of the source instead of the original TypeScript. I was hoping that by including the TypeScript source and the sourcemap in my package, Chrome Dev Tools would be able to show my TypeScript file.
- Is it possible to bundle a TypeScript library in a way that it can be debugged in a dependent web app?
- If not, should I not bother bundling the source and the sourcemap in my package, thus reducing the bundle size? What is the best practice around this?
