Thanks for that you are interested in contributing to Rsbuild. Before starting your contribution, please take a moment to read the following guidelines.
Fork this repository to your own GitHub account and then clone it to your local.
We recommend using Node.js 20. You can check your currently used Node.js version with the following command:
node -v
If you do not have Node.js installed in your current environment, you can use nvm or fnm to install it.
Here is an example of how to install the Node.js 20 LTS version via nvm:
# Install the LTS version of Node.js 20
nvm install 20 --lts
# Make the newly installed Node.js 20 as the default version
nvm alias default 20
# Switch to the newly installed Node.js 20
nvm use 20
Enable pnpm with corepack:
corepack enable
Install dependencies:
pnpm install
What this will do:
- Install all dependencies
- Create symlinks between packages in the monorepo
- Run the
prepare
script to build all packages, powered by nx.
Please make sure you have your email set up in <https://github.com/settings/emails>
. This will be needed later when you want to submit a pull request.
Check that your git client is already configured the email:
git config --list | grep email
Set the email to global config:
git config --global user.email "SOME_EMAIL@example.com"
Set the email for local repo:
git config user.email "SOME_EMAIL@example.com"
Once you have set up the local development environment in your forked repo, we can start development.
It is recommended to develop on a new branch, as it will make things easier later when you submit a pull request:
git checkout -b MY_BRANCH_NAME
Use nx build to build the package you want to change:
npx nx build @rsbuild/core
Build all packages:
pnpm run build
If you've fixed a bug or added code that should be tested, then add some tests.
You can add unit test cases in the <PACKAGE_DIR>/tests
folder. The test runner is based on Vitest.
Before submitting a pull request, it's important to make sure that the changes haven't introduced any regressions or bugs. You can run the unit tests for the project by executing the following command:
pnpm run ut
You can also run the unit tests of single package:
pnpm run ut packages/core
Rsbuild uses playwright to run end-to-end tests.
You can run the e2e
command to run E2E tests:
pnpm run e2e
If you need to run a specified test, you can add keywords to filter:
# Only run test cases which contains `vue` keyword in file path with Rspack
pnpm e2e:rspack vue
# Only run test cases which contains `vue` keyword in test name with Rspack
pnpm e2e:rspack -g vue
To help maintain consistency and readability of the codebase, we use Biome to lint the codes.
You can run the linters by executing the following command:
pnpm run lint
For VS Code users, you can install the Biome VS Code extension to see lints while typing.
You can find the Rsbuild documentation in the website folder.
Commit your changes to your forked repo, and create a pull request.
The format of PR titles follow Conventional Commits.
An example:
feat(plugin-swc): Add `myOption` config

You can input !bench
in the comment area of the PR to do benchmarking on rsbuild
(you need to have Collaborator and above permissions).
You can focus on metrics related to build time and bundle size based on the comparison table output by comments to assist you in making relevant performance judgments and decisions.
Dependencies installation-related metrics base on publishing process, so the data is relatively lagging and is for reference only.
We use [changesets] to manage version. Currently, all Rsbuild packages will use a fixed unified version.
The release notes are automatically generated by GitHub releases.
Repository maintainers can publish a new version of all packages to npm.
Here are the steps to publish (we generally use CI for releases and avoid publishing npm packages locally):
- Create release pull request.
- Run the release action.
- Generate the release notes.
- Merge the release pull request.
