# npm-gui

Homepage and full documentation: https://npm-gui.nullapps.dev

`npm-gui` is a convenient tool for managing javascript project dependencies listed in `package.json`. Under the hood, it will transparently use `npm`, `pnpm`, or `yarn` commands to install, remove or update dependencies

(_to use **yarn** it requires the **yarn.lock** file to be present in the project folder._)

![App Demo](https://npm-gui.nullapps.dev/batch-install.GIF)

## Getting Started

The recommended way to run `npm-gui` is by using `npx`:

```

~/$ npx npm-gui@latest

```

It will run the most recent version of `npm-gui` without installing it on your system.

#### Installation as global dependency

`npm-gui` could also be installed as a global dependency:

```

~/$ npm install -g npm-gui

```

and then run with just:

```

~/$ npm-gui

```

#### Installation as local dependency (not-recommended)

```

~/$ npm install npm-gui

```
