The fact that you can recompile lib projects with the watch flag was something I was looking for for so long. Thanks!!

This was great, use this with typescript "path" parameter if you don't like the relative path names.

I have the references set up, but somehow the ci/cd pipeline keeps failing because it cannot find module lib in this scenario. I use github actions for the pipeline. Would you perhaps know how that could be fixed?

I use Nx to achieve similar thing and more, but with more complexity. Am I a bad developer for not liking and not using semicolons?
