Describe the bug

Doing an npm install aws-amplify downloads 1045 packages, which is a footprint too big for simple functionalities, ie, i am using just Auth from amplify, i dont think i need 1045 packages to make it work. And if i do, something is wrong with the library itself.

Expected behavior

Library footprint should be a lot lower

Reproduction steps

1. Run npm install aws-amplify
