# npm init es6
To initialise a free and open ESM project (`"type"="module"`) in Node.js, simply issue the following command:
```shell
npm init es6
```
I made this as an alternative to `npm init -y` (which produces a _package.json_ file for a CommonJS project by default) because I was sick of (forgetting to) add the type declaration into the package file manually every time.
This is the _package.json_ file it creates:
```json
{
"name": "",
"version": "1.0.0",
"description": "",
"main": "index.js",
"type": "module",
"license": "AGPL-version-3.0",

"node": ">= 14.0.0",
"npm": ">= 6.0.0"
