Keep It Simple!

You can use lnk-cli to create a directory link.

Here’s my setup using TypeScript:

• common (Contains all .ts files I want to share)
• server (This is a BullBoard server)
• functions (This is a Firebase project)

Step 1: Install lnk-cli

• Install globally, see here.

Step 2: Common Folder

Only include the code files you want (no package.json, tsconfig.json, etc.)

Step 3: Package.json

See the highlighted text. Just add the "lnk" command to create the directory link before watching the TypeScript files.

Step 4: .gitignore

The common folder has the main code, so you can ignore these linked folders. Any changes in one of the three locations (common, functions/common, or server/common) will automatically reflect in all linked locations.

Done!

Now you can import the common files like this. (No additional need to adjust tsconfig.json)
