More lenient external dependency requirements

[jkillian]

Description

We've just started trying out plate and so far it's been great! One small thing I noticed though was that many of the plate packages have exact external dependency versions hardcoded, for example, in core:

plate/packages/core/package.json

Lines 42 to 46 in 9b0cf59

	"clsx": "1.1.1",
	"jotai": "1.5.3",
	"lodash": "4.17.21",
	"use-deep-compare": "1.1.0",
	"zustand": "3.7.0"

This unfortunately can really bloat bundlesize because it means that plate can't share a version of a dependency with other packages that require the same dependency, and the dependency ends up getting installed and bundled multiple times.

Would you be willing to make all the dependency versions accept patch and minor releases above what you currently have? So "lodash": "4.17.21", -> "lodash": "^4.17.21",for eample?

Thanks for the consideration, and apologies if this isn't really a "bug", wasn't sure where to file it!

Sure, let's do that

is there a plan to do this soon / to make some packages modular ? Right now Plate adds 600kB to bundle size which is huge ; for example plate-code-block adds 100k in dependencies (prism) even if not used ; and the dependency on juice adds over 250k by itself

If bundle size matters, you should install individual packages instead of @udecode/plate

As for this issue, this is not my priority yet so PR's welcome.
