<h2 id="SYNOPSIS">SYNOPSIS</h2>
<pre><code>npm init</code></pre>
<h2 id="DESCRIPTION">DESCRIPTION</h2>
<p>This will ask you a bunch of questions, and then write a package.json for you.</p>
<p>It attempts to make reasonable guesses about what you want things to be set to,
and then writes a package.json file with the options you've selected.</p>
<p>If you already have a package.json file, it'll read that first, and default to
the options in there.</p>
<p>It is strictly additive, so it does not delete options from your package.json
without a really good reason to do so.</p>
