Description-en: package manager for Node.js
Node.js is an event-based server-side javascript engine.
.
npm is the package manager for the Node JavaScript platform. It puts
modules in place so that node can find them, and manages dependency
conflicts intelligently.
.
It is extremely configurable to support a wide variety of use cases.
Most commonly, it is used to publish, discover, install, and develop
node programs.
