I am looking for a method using npm that completely clears out all installed modules from the node_modules directory, including any compiled or build artifacts, without immediately rebuilding them. Essentially, I want to perform a full reset of my project dependencies, similar to a clean installation. What command or procedure exists to achieve this, allowing me to delete all current node modules and then perform a fresh installation afterward? Any guidance or detailed steps would be appreciated.
hey try removing node_modules and the package-lock.json file, then run npm install. its a crude reset, but it clears out compiled bits too. hope that helps
