NodeJS installation instructions

• no release/dist folder on version 3 when installing from github via npm install @svgdotjs/svg.js so module cannot be imported:

Error [ERR_MODULE_NOT_FOUND]: Cannot find package 'XXX\node_modules\@svgdotjs\svg.js\' imported from app.js
    at new NodeError (node:internal/errors:399:5)
    at legacyMainResolve (node:internal/modules/esm/resolve:202:9)

• the command pulls repo instead of a package.

• currently only release section and cdns have a compiled version.

• current package.json refers /dist folder for release/compiled version.

• The real question is why svg.js 3 is not published. If the repo supposed to be a src only repo, maybe a second repo for svg.js 3 makes sense?

Any news on this?

Why are you pulling from github? Install via npm and the dist folder is right there.
You obvisouly need svgdom for this to run:

import { SVG, registerWindow } from "@svgdotjs/svg.js";
import { createSVGWindow } from "svgdom";

const window = createSVGWindow();
registerWindow(window, window.document);

const svg = SVG().addTo(window.document.documentElement);

svg.rect(100, 100);

console.log(svg.svg());
