Using npm Template

This template demonstrates the use of Node Package Manager (or npm). npm is the world's largest software registry of reusable packages. In this example, we use a simple package named 'num2fraction' that can translate a decimal value into a fraction.

Installing npm Packages

The easiest way to manage npm packages is to use the Install npm Packages menu option under the Server menu. With this option, you can add or remove packages in a point and click manner.

This is a simple demo of Fibers! Fibers simplifies code by avoiding messy code known as "callback hell", "promises hell", or "async/await hell". Once Fibers is setup, you never have to think about callbacks or promises (they are handled automatically for you).
