lerna-alias is a utility package that generates alias mappings for packages managed by Lerna, enabling development tools like webpack, Rollup, and Jest to directly reference source files instead of built distributions. It's designed for developers working with Lerna monorepos who want to streamline their development workflow by allowing tools to consume packages from their source directories. The package provides a simple API to configure how aliases are generated, supporting options like custom source directories and main fields resolution.
