Update package.json

[sthota-fms]

Need to export package.json for react-native project.

Please view this issue for further details.

Not sure I understand why one would want to import the package.json file. Could you elaborate?

When I try to install cheerio, I get this warning in my console.

Therefore, it's expecting ./package.json.

Seems like this has been fixed: react-native-community/cli#1655

Feel free to use a pre-ESM version of cheerio while you are unable to upgrade (have a look through the releases on GitHub to see which one introduced it).

Closing this as I don't see a need to work around fixed bugs in external tooling — hope that makes sense!

@fb55 Weighing in here. It's generally good practice to include an export for the package.json so that tooling can use it. For instance, an app that wants to dynamically display what versions of open source packages its using for legal reporting, can do that easily by loading the package.jsons of its dependencies. This seems like an easy thing to add, with no real downside.
