npm: Installed git repo fails as package

I forked and modified a git repo, then tried to install it with npm i {repo name} At first I thought it installed correctly.

// package.json
  "react-big-calendar": "git+https://github.com/seanprpl/fkCalendar.git",

But referencing this fork during import throws an exception during compile.

./pages/admin/calendar/index.js:5:0
Module not found: Can't resolve 'react-big-calendar'
  3 | import Header from '../../../modules/Header/Header';
  4 | import { Container } from '../../../layouts/components';
> 5 | import { Calendar as RBCalendar, momentLocalizer } from "react-big-calendar";
  6 | import moment from "moment";
  7 | 
  8 | const localizer = momentLocalizer(moment);

Does anyone know why this result may happen and how to fix it?

The project has build steps that would be run before a publish to npm.

If you want to source the package from git, all the build output will need to be added to the repo.

It looks like the lib/ and dist/ directories that are gitignored are the main entry points.
