Infusing the greatest benefits of modern bundlers (Webpack, Rollup) and loaders (SystemJS, RequireJS) into an all-inclusive build and run-time solution optimized for the end-user experience.
Bundlers like Webpack do a great job at providing a toolset needed to deliver an optimal out-of-the-box delivery solution for your end-users. Most loaders on the other hand, are focused on delivering only the requested assets, as they are needed. Radpack fuses the best of both worlds by taking advantage of build-time bundling, with graph-based run-time loading.

Several application, client, and library examples
Each package independently manages its semver and is updated using lerna. Run npx lerna publish to publish all modified packages, or run npx lerna version <semver type> in each package you want to individually version bump and then at the root run npx lerna publish from-package.
