Node Modules

Usually Front-end dependencies are managed by npm (more about it in the official documentation). By default, npm installs all dependencies into the node_modules directory.

Every projects lists all its dependencies, required packages and relevant scripts in its respective package.json file.

  • Projects and libraries code should never have node_modules folder committed.
  • Any Project code should commit the package-lock.json file. This file is automatically generated for any operations where npm modifies either the node_modules tree, or the package.json. It describes the exact tree that was generated, such that subsequent installs are able to generate identical trees, regardless of intermediate dependency updates.
