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.
