package.json
Answered
If I start an empty project in IntelliJ IDEA how do I install package.json? I have nodeJS up and running.
Many thanks,
Charles

Not sure what you mean by installing it... Please try File/New/package.json File - this action creates a basic package.json file. You can then add dependencies to it and use 'Run npm install' in its right-click menu to install packages. Note that you need to have NodeJS plugin installed to get this working: Settings | Plugins, Install JetBrains Plugin..., type 'NodeJS' to quickly locate it

Thank you for your response. I do have the NodeJS plugin installed. However, when I do File - New package.json is not one of the options. I am not sure why.
Many thanks,

may depend on the selection. Also, action is not available if package.json already exists in the target directory
