There is nothing to understand about node_modules, those are just built libraries that your project uses. Ignore them, unless you want to look up something thats undocumented for some reason.

@Marl3x Ignore them? Always check your dependencies to find that nasty malicious code, specially for the small ones.

@Marl3x Who told you to read anything? There is tools out there that do automatic checkups to find any malicious code.

@AurumMan79 You are still ignoring it then, you are just managing your packages, and thats nothing you do inside "node_modules"
