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.
