Part of learning Node.js is creating a package.json file using npm init, but you can also create one automatically. Creating a package.json file is typically the first step in a Node project, and you need one to install dependencies in npm. If you're starting a project from scratch, you create a package.json file to hold important metadata about your project and record your dependencies. When you run npm init to generate a package.json, you can accept the suggested defaults, or fill out your own information.
In this tutorial, we'll:
