I'm developing a browser-side package, with several runtime dependencies and developing tools. As suggested, I install them using NPM as dependencies and devDependencies respectively.
Eventually, before I publish it, I always compile every source file and external dependencies into one minimized file.
When I try to install it in another project, however, I noticed that all "dependencies" packages are also installed. I assume it's a standard NPM behavior, yet these packages should not be needed, as I've already compressed them all into my own .min.js file.
Should I just move them all to "devDependencies"?
