For what it's worth (though it seems like the decisions is done), there's no need to support every build/bundling platform - the NPM registry is rather 'tooling agnostic' and publishing there would make it available to a lot more people with a lot less effort.

The sqlite project is populated entirely by C coders (my primary language), none of whom have either experience with, nor a need for, NPM, so we're not eager to claim any level of support for it. Trying to support a tool one neither uses nor understands is like trying to wave away darkness with one's hand. > ... with a lot less effort. A lot less effort on their own parts and a lot more on ours ;). Future NPM support has not been outright ruled out, but it is admittedly nowhere even close to currently being on our radar.
