This extension supports running npm scripts defined in the `package.json` as [tasks](https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/editor/tasks). Scripts with the name 'build', 'compile', or 'watch'
The Npm Script Explorer shows the npm scripts found in your workspace. The explorer view is enabled by the setting `npm.enableScriptExplorer`. A script can be opened, run, or debug from the explorer.
The extension supports running a script as a task from the Explorer. Right-click a folder in Explorer and select the `Run npm Script in Folder...` option to bring up a command palette listing the scripts that the folder contains. You can run the script by selecting from the options listed in the command palette.
The extension fetches data from https://registry.npmjs.org and https://registry.bower.io to provide auto-completion and information on hover features on npm dependencies.
