Known Issues (Non-Blocking)

Translation Warnings

IntlError: MISSING_MESSAGE: Could not resolve `navigation.pages` in messages for locale `en`
IntlError: MISSING_MESSAGE: Could not resolve `common.userRoles.developer` in messages for locale `en`

Impact: Cosmetic only. Some UI labels show keys instead of translated text. Fix: Add missing translation keys to contents/themes/default/messages/en/

Watch Mode Warnings

Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, stat '.../contents/themes/...'

Impact: None. Expected in NPM mode where theme source files aren't watched. Fix: Not needed. This is expected behavior.

Conclusion

NPM Distribution v4 (version 0.2.0) is validated and ready for use.

The dual-mode architecture with external registry imports successfully allows:

• Development in monorepo with source registries
• Consumption as npm package with project-specific registries
• Turbopack and webpack compatibility
• TypeScript path resolution
