I am! Thought It may be a while before I get into it because npm basics is a prerequisite course. :-)

@Jonathan Grieve I learned npm for quite a while and was fairly disappointed that I did because the only commands I've used so far are

  • npm init <module-name> (Create a package.json file which list the dependencies for the project and your (the owner's information))
  • npm install <module-name> (just install something)
  • npm install <module-name> --save (install something and save it as a production dependency for the project folder in the file package.json)
  • npm install <module-name> --save-dev (install something and save it as a development dependency for the project folder in the file package.json)
  • npm update <module-name> (self explanatory)
  • npm uninstall <module_name> (self explanatory)

The only thing I would say is be careful with the global flag: -g.

Otherwise, referring to this cheat sheet for exceptions has covered all of my needs.
