I bought a book on Node.js since I'm teaching myself backend development, 
and in this book the author talks about the importance of package.json 
files. He emphasizes that it's great for keeping track of module 
dependencies in a json format, and installing them all at once using "npm 
install" in a terminal. So far so good...

But how do I assign my package.json to a particular node.js file? Just 
stick it in the same folder??? Does it not clash with the package.json file 
that comes with locally installed npm modules? Do I just make the Name key 
in the json file the exact same as my js file?

Maybe the package.json is simply for putting your project on npm?

I'm totally confused....

Would be cool if there was a node.js expert I could chat with over skype. 
I'm so lost.
