Remove Node Modules & Bring Back | Removal Command via NPM

Node Modules, npm packages or project dependencies are installed and uninstalled but not shared or uploaded. These packages get updates and older versions becomes deprecated. You have to install or remove node modules often. I work on a project and when I am done with it, I always remove entire node modules folder to save space. If you work on loads of nodejs or reactjs projects, then you have a lot of hard drive space occupied by node modules - if you don’t remove them. Removal of node modules is easy and it takes only one command. Bringing them back is also easy and takes single npm command. Watch how to do it in video.
