Add a new Remotion package

Steps

1. •

   Create packages/<name>/ with these files:

   • •package.json — copy from @remotion/light-leaks as template; update name, description, homepage, dependencies
   • •tsconfig.json — extends ../tsconfig.settings.json, uses tsgo with emitDeclarationOnly: true, outDir: "dist", module: "es2020", moduleResolution: "bundler", target: "ES2022"
   • •src/index.ts — exports
   • •bundle.ts — Bun build script, externalize react, remotion, remotion/no-react, react/jsx-runtime, react/jsx-dev-runtime, react-dom
   • •eslint.config.mjs — use remotionFlatConfig({react: true}) if React, {react: false} otherwise
   • •.npmignore — copy from @remotion/light-leaks
   • •README.md — package name, description, install command, link to docs
2. •

   Register in monorepo:

   • •tsconfig.json (root) — add {"path": "./packages/<name>"} to references
   • •packages/cli/src/list-of-remotion-packages.ts — add '@remotion/<name>'
   • •packages/create-video/src/list-of-remotion-packages.ts — add '@remotion/<name>'
   • •packages/studio-shared/src/package-info.ts — add to packages, descriptions, installableMap, apiDocs
3. •

   Documentation (packages/docs/docs/<name>/):

   • •Add "@remotion/<name>": "workspace:*" to packages/docs/package.json dependencies (needed for twoslash snippets)
   • •index.mdx — install tabs, table of contents, license
   • •table-of-contents.tsx — TOCItem grid linking to component/function pages
   • •Individual component/function .mdx pages
   • •Edit packages/docs/sidebars.ts — add category
   • •Edit packages/docs/components/TableOfContents/api.tsx — import table of contents and add section

See the writing-docs skill for details on writing documentation.

1. •

   Example usage:

   • •Add "@remotion/<name>": "workspace:*" to packages/example/package.json
   • •Create packages/example/src/<Name>/index.tsx
   • •Register <Composition> in packages/example/src/Root.tsx
   • •Add {"path": "../<name>"} to packages/example/tsconfig.json references
2. •

   Run bun i to install dependencies

3. •

   Build: cd packages/<name> && bun run make

Version

Use the current version from packages/core/src/version.ts.
For the documentation version, increment the patch version by 1 as it will only be released with the next Remotion release.

Patterns

• •Use "workspace:*" for internal dependencies
• •Use "catalog:" for shared external dependency versions
• •The make script is: tsgo && bun --env-file=../.env.bundle bundle.ts
• •Add "type": "module" to package.json
• •Add "@typescript/native-preview": "catalog:" to devDependencies
• •Types/main point to dist/index.d.ts and dist/index.js (not dist/cjs/)
• •Packages with React components need peerDependencies for react and react-dom
