Just to be clear, thumbs down = should not be minified? Any package installed from NPM should absolutely not be minified. Anyone who is interested in delivering a small app is already using a minifier for the rest of their code. Being able to read a dependency's code (preferably with comments intact) is very valuable, and it also gives cleaner error traces. Minified versions of the package can be included in the NPM distribution for those that want them, but it should not be what is used as the entry point for imports. |

Due to the majority that says it should not be minified, I will keep it as it is currently. |

In #5, @simone-sanfratello brought up minifying the code in Microdiff's NPM package. However, most people targeting the web already minify everything themselves, and many people who use Node like their dependencies being readable.
