Why does the readme install this as a dev dependency?

This means it won't be built into production bundles.

Hi Douglas, dev dependency in readme is due to my muscle memory. Bundlers like Rollup, Webpack, and Parcel don't differentiate between dependencies and devDependencies. As long as you import the package in the source code somewhere in the tree of your entry file, it ends up in the production bundle. I tested it with Vite.

When you run npm install --production, npm installs only the dependencies. In that case, move it to dependencies.

I'll consider updating the readme
