I've dug around a bit, and there seems to be some different opinions about whether or not to use npm with sudo - mainly to do with global installs, creating symlinks etc.
For example, when setting up a new personal machine (mac or linux), I would chown /usr/local to belong to my login user, hence not having to sudo global npm actions. If I were to use the superuser later for whatever reason, then that trumps any lower permissions, and so on. What's the canonical opinion about this? Would this advice differ from development environments to production ones..?
