Move qwik packages qwik-themes to devDependencies error after install

[Shane-Donlon]

Hey everyone,

after starting a new qwik app (blank project v1 and v2)

I run "npm install qwik-themes" when I try to load the dev server I get the below error

failed to load config from {location of stuff on my computer} \qwik-app\vite.config.ts
11:26:51 [vite] Move qwik packages qwik-themes to devDependencies
11:26:51 [vite] server restart failed

package.json file file after install

  "dependencies": {
    "qwik-themes": "^0.3.0"
  }

solution in root package.json move from "dependencies" to "devDependencies"

  "devDependencies": {
    "qwik-themes": "^0.3.0", 
{... default packages} 
  }
