> These other kind people took the time to try to address my specific problem in their own words
Do you really think people should try to write these things over and over again each time this question is asked, instead of pointing out to a priori correct and officially maintained documentation? eww

--But Ben, you didn't try to help me. It would be an unearned "Thank You" if I said Thanks. I cleared was asking for specific information on a specific subject, and like many people on websites like stack overflow, you just send me over to the documentation; which is ridiculous frankly. If you asked someone how to put a lid on a blender and they tossed you a 50 page manual, you'd be justified to tell them to go to F*cking Hell.These other kind people took the time to try to address my specific problem in their own words, you didn't. It wouldn't be fair to THEM for me to thank your laziness.On Wed, Mar 26, 2014 at 10:05 PM, Ben Taber <[email protected]> wrote:Wow, a simple "Thank you, but I've read those docs and I'm still confused about x, y, and z" would have sufficed. Instead you've insulted me for trying to help, and the people who authored or contributed to those docs that "suck".Personally, I found the combination of those two pieces of documentation, plus a bit of experimentation, to be very helpful in grasping the concepts.Good luck figuring it out.Ben

I've been to those sites and their explanations suck, that's why I'm here!Otherwise, thank you Angel Java Lopez, Matt, and Aria Stewart for trying your best to answer my questions!On Wed, Mar 26, 2014 at 3:44 PM, Ben Taber <[email protected]> wrote:node's docs on how modules are loaded, and how package.json files are looked upnpm's docs on the fields in package.jsonhttps://www.npmjs.org/doc/json.htmlRead through both and you should have a pretty good understanding.

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.To post to this group, send email to [email protected]--
