  2. Build and start using npm start

Run Tests

Run all unit tests (no end-to-end tests) using

npm test

Run all end-to-end tests (written in Playwright) using

npm run test:e2e

End-to-end tests need to follow the convention of using someName.e2e.test.ts as their filename. They'll automatically get picked up by the test runner this way.

Browser Bundle analysis

Generate a stats.json file for analysis using

npm run print-stats

You can upload your stats.json file here or here for visualization. See more resources here.
