🧪 Testing Locally

If you want to test your local changes without publishing to npm, use:

npm link

Run this in your project root. This makes your local package available globally.

Then run:

mytree

It will execute your local code.

To remove the linked package and revert to the installed npm version, run:

npm unlink -g mytree
