Similar to what would happen today when a package exports both ESM (web) & CJS (node): frontend gets ESM via @pika/web, while node would use CJS via require. A Babel plugin comes bundled with @pika/web which can help you resolve imports correctly in the web build. Although at that point, where your app needs to reliably run in both Node & the browser, there’s a good case to be made for bundling. All that complexity is giving you something valuable, which is the point that the article tries to make: in 2019, use bundling because you want to and not because you have to.
