it's expected. users will install your lib's dependencies, so it's no need to bundle them.

Any way to include lib's dependencies in bundle @aladdin-add?

maybe you can try moving them to devDependencies . but TBH, I'm not very sure.

[Bhavik Chavda]

I tested and found that npm installs dependencies if the package has package.json and package.json has dependencies specified. Still, I will verify it and close this issue.

Closing this issue because I tested that if the package has package.json and package.json has dependencies specified, npm installs that dependencies automatically.
