🚀 rm-node 🚀

disclaimer: this project is a joke

About

JS devs know that NPM fails a lot and usually the solution is to delete node_modules, delete the lockfile, and then reinstall. Sadly node_modules is so big it can take minutes to delete.
rm-node solves this problem by using the delete crate powered by tokio to delete files and folders 2-3x faster!

How the problem can actually be solved

fix the whole node_modules thing and make lockfiles work like they do in Rust

Features

  • async
  • cross-platform
  • fast

Installation

You must have Rust and Cargo installed. Install it from crates.io
cargo install rm-node

Usage

To delete node_modules and any other lockfiles:
rm-node --lockfiles

To only delete node_modules:
rm-node

Bugs and Contributing
