I'm trying out Svelte. I've followed the instructions on getting a starter project going. I've made some minor customizations, and added one library to help with making fetch requests (build-url).
Everything works great! I'm able to import build-url using this syntax in my Home.svelte file:
import buildUrl from '../node_modules/build-url';
However, I'm coming from Angular; I'm very, very used to omitting the path the node_modules from my code entirely; Angular just finds what it needs. My ideal end state would be the following:
import buildUrl from 'build-url';
Is there a Rollup configuration I can use to mimic this behavior? I'm not against using a path to the node_modules folder, but I can't help but feel like I'm doing it wrong. If I can't do it with Rollup, is it possible with another bundler like webpack or Parcel?

If you're using the starter template, you should already have rollup-plugin-node-resolve and rollup-plugin-commonjs plugins installed, it should Just Work. Indeed, adding
to a component in a fresh project works exactly as you'd expect. Are you getting any error messages? Have you done
npm install build-url?For future reference, questions like these are better asked over on Stack Overflow using the svelte tag, or in svelte.dev/chat, than on dev.to which is more for blog posts etc than support requests.
