NAME

       npm-prune - Remove extraneous packages

SYNOPSIS

       npm prune [[<@scope>/]<pkg>...] [--production]

DESCRIPTION

       This  command  removes  "extraneous"  packages.  If  a package name is provided, then only
       packages matching one of the supplied names are removed.

       Extraneous packages are packages that are not listed on the parent package´s  dependencies
       list.

       If  the  --production  flag  is  specified  or the NODE_ENV environment variable is set to
       production, this command will remove  the  packages  specified  in  your  devDependencies.
       Setting --production=false will negate NODE_ENV being set to production.
