Between install flags, workspace commands, and publishing steps, npm has a lot of surface area to remember. This searchable cheatsheet keeps the commands you actually use close at hand.

What Is the npm Cheatsheet?

A searchable, categorized reference covering project setup, installing/removing/updating packages, running scripts, registry info, publishing, configuration, and npm workspaces — each entry with common flags and a real example command.

How to Use It

  1. Open the tool at /tools/npm-cheatsheet.
  2. Search by command name, flag, or description, or filter by category.
  3. Click Copy on any command to copy it straight to your clipboard.

Key Features

  • Instant search across command names, flags, descriptions, and examples.
  • Category filters (Installing, Publishing, Workspaces, and more).
  • Real example commands, not just abstract syntax.
  • One-click copy for any command.

When to Use This Tool

  • Remembering the exact flag for a less-common npm command.
  • Learning npm workspaces syntax for a monorepo setup.
  • Quickly checking the difference between similar commands like npm install and npm ci.
