13,365 PointsI created a new file "package.json" and set its contents to
{}
Once i install it updates the json to include the bcrypt as a dependency with the installed version. So after it installed bcrypt, my package.json file ended up becoming
{
"dependencies": {
"bcrypt": "^4.0.1"
}
}
Also I refreshed the workspace directory to show the installed modules.
