# Auto NPX

Auto resolving local Node.js binaries in VS Code terminal.



### Usage

When you have packages installed locally, just call it without `npx`! (and you don't need to install them globally anymore)

```diff

- $ npx vite

+ $ vite

- $ npx jest

+ $ jest

- $ npx -p typescript tsc

+ $ tsc

- $ npx -p webpack-cli webpack

+ $ webpack

```

### How

When you open up a terminal in VS Code, this extension injects `PATH` env variable with the local Node.js binaries.

```bash

export PATH=$PWD/node_modules/.bin:$PATH

```

And that's it!

The `PATH` modification will only affect the current session so no worries about your other environments.
