+
+# Build a single package
+npm run build -w <package_name>

+npm run build --workspaces

+**If you are developing on a single package only and need to ignore the rest of the packages**, you need to install with `--include-workspace-root`. This is because the installation of a single package does not install the root’s dependencies, which are usually needed for building and linting.
+
+```bash
+npm install -w @<package_name> --include-workspace-root
+```
