Author here. I made this because finding package sizes of front end libraries was a pain, especially after modular javascript caught on.

You can also see size results now when browsing a package on yarnpkg.com (look for "Size in browser") or as a sheild on some repos (WIP).

Suggestions welcome.

Can you fix this?

    MissingDependencyError
    This package (or this version) uses `./lib-cov/http`, but does not specify them
    either as a dependency or a peer dependency

For input chai-http

Sorry, I think I broke it because I didn't understand it. I was really curious to see what angular-cli came in with in your tool, because my feeling is that it's very costly in terms of dependencies. The result never came back.. stuck at "Calculating File Sizes" was I not supposed to look at such types of packages?

Really cool site, material breaks it though. Can't find dependency "button" :)

Thanks for building!

Wouldn't it make more sense to optinally add all dependencies?

If you're the author of `react-button`, it wouldn't make sense to add `react` + `react-dom` to account for it's size. In most cases, peer dependencies are already present in the user's projects.

Where are you from that 3G is "emerging"? I think we have like 90% LTE coverage for major providers, just a question of hardware supporting that.

Oh boy. Guys, should we tell him?

It's about emerging markets.

What are those? According to Wikipedia most countries have 60% 4G penetration. Not sure what it means and how accurate it is though.

Turns out 40% of several billion is a pretty large number.
