How does the Node Package Manager work?

In the software industry, there are lots of package managers present like maven, nugget and currently npm. A package manager is a software which finds whatever package you required, installs that package on your local machine it also manages that package and if you want to uninstall it will remove that package from your system.

Right now there are lots of packages on the internet and if you want to go out and find that site install it on the machine is a little bit time-consuming task so package manager solves that problem you only need to fire command and it will find it and install it on your machine.

npm install jquery
In the above command, jquery is our package name.
