Few commands I found very useful during development.

Command	Description
`npm list`	show a tree of every package found in the current folder
`npm list -g`	same as above ^^, but search also in global packages
`npm list -g --depth=0`	same as above ^^, but do not show every packages dependencies
`npm list [package name]`	show a tree of every instance found in the current folder of that specific package
`npm install`	install all packages in `package.json`
`npm install [package name]`	install a package
`npm install [package name] --save`	install a package as dependency
`npm install [package name] --save-dev`	install a package as dev dependency
`npm uninstall [package name]`	uninstall a package
`npm install --save username/repo#branch-name-or-commit-or-tag`	install package from GitHub repository

Alias	Command
`npm i`	`npm install`
`npm i [package name] -D`	`npm install [package name] --save-dev`

npm-check is a useful tool to check for outdated, incorrect, and unused dependencies
