You can use [**npm-run-all**][1] to combine multiple commands in a lot of different ways

For example, if you had the following scripts in your `package.json`:

```json
"scripts": {
    "clean": "rimraf dist",
    "lint":  "eslint src",
    "build": "babel src -o lib"
}
```

You could run them all sequentially like this:

```bash
$ npm-run-all clean lint build
```

See this question for [how to run multiple npm commands in parallel][2]

 Let's say I have 

    "scripts": {
        "pre-build": "echo \"Welcome\" && exit 1",
        "build_logic": "start cmd.exe @cmd /k \"yo esri-appbuilder-js:widget && exit 1\"",
        "post_build":  "start C:\\WebAppBuilderForArcGIS\\startupShortcut",
        "exit" : "start cmd.exe @cmd /k \"echo \"goodbye\" && exit 1\""
      },

What NPM command can I run to let all of these scripts launch sequentially. When I use pre/post fixing they launch sequentially but they don't wait for the parent script to finish before executing. I am assuming the only solution is like: https://stackoverflow.com/q/25371192/3174123 ? I know this can be done with Gulp but I would like to stick with NPM for now to explore its capabilities. Thanks for any help!
