Research direction

Locate the installation section in the hyperscript documentation and compare its structure with the npm section linked from htmx.org. Add the npm installation command and the documented dist file usage shown in the issue, then verify the links and code example render correctly.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

htmx.org does have instruction how to install it via NPM. Hyperscript is also install-able via NPM but this is not documented.

Would it be a good idea to highlight this also in the hyperscript documentation.

Example below from htmx.org replaced with hyperscript (checked the node_modules dir if it exists).

npm

For npm-style build systems, you can install hyperscript via [npm](https://www.npmjs.com/):

npm install hyperscript.org

After installing, you’ll need to use appropriate tooling to use node_modules/hyperscript.org/dist/_hyperscript.js (or .min.js). For example, you might bundle hyperscript with some extensions and project-specific code.
