Description
Currently this project is written in (generates) TypeScript using esm module notation but generates CJS output.
This makes applying size optimizations to the code essentially impossible. While this package is supposed to be used on the server side, there are environments that care about impact of a module on startup time such as serverless environments and CLIs. Measured on my Macbook M1, requiring this packages currently takes about 650ms.
