how to remove an npm package code example
Example 1: How to uninstall npm modules in node js?
The command is simply npm uninstall
// Here are different options:
// - removes the module from node_modules but
// does NOT update package.json
npm uninstall
// - removes it from dependencies in package.json aswell
npm uninstall --save
// - removes it from devDependencies in package.json aswell
npm uninstall --save-dev
// - also removes it globally
npm uninstall -g --save
// If you're removing a global package, however, any applications
// referencing it will crash.
// A local install will be in the node_modules/ directory of your
// application. This won't affect the application if a module remains
// there with no references to it.
// The Node.js documents https://npmjs.org/doc/ have all the commands
// that you need to know with npm.
