Some node modules contain generated JavaScript, for example transpiled
from es6->es5, generated from coffeescript, or generated with jison.

Is it allowed to include these generated files in the module or do we
really need to "build from source". The package guidelines do not
mention generated code [1]

I'm currently reviewing a package [2] which is generated with jison,
jison and its dependencies are not packaged. Packaging jison seems like
a lot of work without any benefits.

What do you think, can we include generated JavaScript or do we have to
build from source?
