Hello, do the new `org.jetbrains.kotlin.js` gradle plugin has capabilities to deploy the code as an npm module? Where can I find its documentation?

Publishing not supported yet. Please create issue in :youtrack: .

<@U0BKAPC0G> What can I do in the meantime? Manually copy the /build/ files and add a package.json?

`package.json` already created by the plugin. It is located in `build/js/packages/&lt;compilationName&gt;/package.json`. But it is has some issues for publishing: `devDependencies` messed with `dependencies` and some other minor things. So, yes, meanwhile it is better to create package.json for publishing manually by copying `build/js/packages/&lt;compilationName&gt;` contents and replacing/patching `package.json`.

<@U0BKAPC0G> I couldn’t tag it `new-multiplatform` but here you go <https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/KT-32332>

<@U0BKAPC0G> Is this what you meant by messed up dependencies?
```
npm ERR! notarget No matching version found for kotlinx-io@0.1.10
npm ERR! notarget In most cases you or one of your dependencies are requesting
npm ERR! notarget a package version that doesn't exist.
```

I found this <https://www.npmjs.com/package/kotlinx-coroutines-io> but this old `0.1.4-SNAPSHOT` doesn’t seem relevant, is it?

What I am supposed to do if dependencies I need are not deployed themselves to <https://www.npmjs.com/> ?

&gt; <@U0BKAPC0G> Is this what you meant by messed up dependencies?

No, I mean that `webpack` and other dev tools are in `dependencies`, but should be in `devDependencies`. For example, currently this `package.json` generated:
```
{
  "main": "kotlin/mppapp18.js",
  "devDependencies": {},
  "dependencies": {
    "webpack": "4.29.6",
    "webpack-cli": "3.3.0",
    "source-map-loader": "0.2.4",
    "source-map-support": "0.5.12",
    "webpack-dev-server": "3.3.1",
    "kotlin": "1.3.40"
  },
  "name": "mppapp18",
  "version": "0.0.0-unspecified"
}
```

But should be:
```
{
  "main": "kotlin/mppapp18.js",
  "devDependencies": {
    "webpack": "4.29.6",
    "webpack-cli": "3.3.0",
    "source-map-loader": "0.2.4",
    "source-map-support": "0.5.12",
    "webpack-dev-server": "3.3.1"
  },
  "dependencies": {
    "kotlin": "1.3.40"
  },
  "name": "mppapp18",
  "version": "0.0.0-unspecified"
}
```

You may bundle this dependencies in your package. There is <http://npm.github.io/using-pkgs-docs/package-json/types/bundleddependencies.html> for that.
