+## Getting Started with npm
+
+### Introduction
+
+npm (Node Package Manager) is the default package manager for Node.js. It allows you to install, update, and manage packages (libraries or modules) for your Node.js applications.
+
+### Installing and checking npm version
+
+Install Node.js from [nodejs.org](https://nodejs.org/), which includes npm. After installation, you can check the installed version of npm using the following command:
+
+```bash
+npm --version
+# or
+npm -v
+```
+
+### Initializing a new project
+
+```bash
+npm init # Interactive setup
+# or
+npm init -y # Creates a package.json with default values
+```
+
+## Installing packages
+
+### Install dependencies from package.json
+
+```bash
+npm install
+# or
+npm i
+```
+
+### Install a specific package
+
+```bash
+npm install <package-name>              # Install and add to dependencies
+npm install <package-name> --save-dev   # Add to devDependencies
+npm install <package-name> -D           # Shorthand for --save-dev
+npm install <package-name> -g           # Install globally
+npm install <package-name>@<version>    # Install specific version
+npm install <package-name>@latest       # Install latest version
+```
+
+### Uninstall a package
+
+```bash
+npm uninstall <package-name>          # Uninstall package
+npm uninstall <package-name> -g       # Uninstall globally
+npm rm <package-name>                 # Shorthand for uninstall
+```
+
+## Viewing, searching and exploring packages
+
+### Viewing packages
+
+```bash
+npm view <package-name>               # View package details
+npm view <package-name> versions      # View all versions of a package
+npm view <package-name> version       # View the latest version of a package
+npm view <package-name> description   # View the description of a package
+```
+
+### Searching for packages
+
+```bash
+npm search <search-term>              # Search for packages with similar terms
+```
+
+### Exploring packages
+
+```bash
+npm docs <package-name>                # Open package documentation in the browser
+npm home <package-name>                # Open package homepage in the browser
+npm repo <package-name>                # Open package repository in the browser
+```
+
+## Managing packages
+
+### Updating packages
+
+```bash
+npm outdated                           # Check for outdated packages
+npm update <package-name>              # Update a specific package
+npm update                             # Update all packages
+```
+
+### Listing installed packages
+
+```bash
+npm list                              # List installed packages in the current project
+npm list -g                           # List globally installed packages
+npm list --depth=0                    # List top-level installed packages only
+```
+
+### Running scripts
+
+```bash
+npm run <script-name>                 # Run a script defined in package.json
+npm start                             # Run the 'start' script
+npm test                              # Run the 'test' script
+npm build                             # Run the 'build' script
+```
+
+### Cache management
+
+```bash
+npm cache verify                      # Verify the integrity of the npm cache
+npm cache clean                       # Clear the npm cache
+npm cache clean --force               # Force clear the npm cache
+```
+
+### Configuring npm
+
+```bash
+npm config list                       # List all npm configuration settings
+npm config set <key> <value>          # Set a configuration value
+npm config get <key>                  # Get the value of a configuration key
+npm config delete <key>               # Delete a configuration key
+```
+
+### Auditing and security
+
+```bash
+npm audit                             # Audit dependencies for vulnerabilities
+npm audit fix                         # Fix vulnerabilities in dependencies
+npm audit fix --force                 # Force fix vulnerabilities, may update major versions
+```
+
+## Publishing packages
+
+```bash
+npm login                             # Log in to your npm account (npmjs.com)
+npm publish                           # Publish a package to the npm registry
+npm version <new-version>             # Bump the version of your package (e.g., patch, minor, major)
+npm unpublish <package-name>          # Unpublish a package (within 72 hours of publishing)
+```
+
+## Other useful commands
+
+```bash
+npm help                              # Get general help on npm
+npm help <command>                    # Get help on a specific npm command
+npm ci                                # Install dependencies from package-lock.json (clean install)
+npm prune                             # Remove extraneous packages
+npm dedupe                           # Reduce duplication in the node_modules folder
+```
