Reduce the node module package size #13

Closed LarryBattle closed 11 years ago

The node module is too big. npm install lb-ratio comes out to ~480 KB.

Wouldn't only providing the min version and a link to this repository be better?

A node.js branch might have to be created. Or you could make an ignore list.

Problem: docs -> 290KB vendor -> 120KB Which is around 410KB of useless space.

Solution:

Generate documentation using dox and a custom template.
Import external scripts from the internet.
Include a script that removed the unnecessary files for the module

Removed the vendor folder.

The best thing that I could do is generate the documentation with dox and a custom template. But I don't have the time for that right now so I'll close this ticket.
