NAME¶
npm-help - Get help on npm
Synopsis¶
npm help <term> [<terms..>] alias: hlep

Description¶

If the topic does not exist, or if multiple terms are provided, then npm will run the help-search command to find a match. Note that, if help-search finds a single subject, then it will run help on that topic, so unique matches are equivalent to specifying a topic name.
Configuration¶
