cicada-build

cicada-build is a build system for Minecraft Bedrock addons based on Gulp. Features include:

Better manifest.json handling: cicada-build takes a .js file as a source of manifest and generates package.json by combining the source and your NPM package.json. If your addon consists of several packs (like a behavior pack and a resource pack), cicada-build will automatically generate manifest.json for each of your pack.
Automatic icon resizing and format conversion: If your pack icon is larger than 256x256 or it's not a PNG image, cicada-build automatically resizes it and converts to PNG.
TypeScript integration: cicada-build automatically transpiles scripts written in TypeScript into JavaScript.
NPM integration: cicada-build can also bundle NPM packages with your script as long as they are ECMAScript modules. (Bundling CommonJS modules is not supported at the moment.)
Protocol Buffers integration: cicada-build automatically compiles Protocol Buffers .proto files into TypeScript so you can efficiently serialize and deserialize your data in your script.
Installing addons: cicada-build can install your addon to Minecraft as long as you can mount its com.mojang directory somewhere on your computer. It does **not** need to be Windows. You can still develop addons with your iOS or Android device if you can somehow mount it.
