Can I have npm packages in a subdirectory










0














*Please, let me know if this is question is too broad, or primarily opinion-based*



I have my app in node.js with its normal ./node_modules/ folder, and I would like to install 1 specific npm package in a specific subfolder.



Is there any "counterproductive" advice I should be aware of before I can do that?
What if I would like to keep the two ./node_modules/ folders completely independent? Can I do that?

  • Could you give more context? The way you have it now makes it sound like you really have two separate projects and should just make one import/require the other.
