`dist` not included in default publish experience

See original GitHub issue

Current Behavior

Currently the scaffolded package.json looks like this:

{
  "source": "src/index.ts",
  "main": "index.js",
  "umd:main": "dist/podcats.umd.production.js",
  "module": "dist/podcats.es.production.js",
  "typings": "dist/index.d.ts",
  "scripts": {
    "start": "tsdx watch",
    "build": "tsdx build",
    "test": "tsdx test"
  },
  "devDependencies": {
// etc
  }
}

when i publish to npm, nothing in the dist folder gets included. this could partially be because of the .gitignore (in which case we should add an .npmignore?) but i think the "main": "index.js", line is also a problem. I’m quite inexperienced at this so i’m not sure how to fix but i’m sure you can.

Expected behavior

i can just type ‘yarn publish’ at the root level and it “just works”
