• bcryptJS
• Nodemailer

If you need other packages you can write a ntg.json file include the base directory where you call fs-ntg which looks like that:

{
  "choices": {
    "showDefault": true,
    "customChoices": [
      { "name": "react-markdown ImageSize", "npm": "fs-imagesize" }
    ]
  }
}
