A package manager that behaves like npm but is ~2.4 times faster.

npm install -g yarn # yrn relies on `yarn` for actual pkg management
npm install -g yrn

yrn takes all install calls and forwards them to yarn. All other calls will be forwarded to npm.

In depth: It will remove the yarn.lock file as well as the added dependencies.It will restore the deleted files innode_packages and gets rid of node_modules/.yarn-integrity. Exception: previously existing yarn files will be kept.

Is equivalent to npm install but actually calls yarn install. It will restore all packages that yarn deletes.

Is equivalent to npm install [pkgName, ...] but actually calls yarn add [pkgName, ...] and then removes any new package.json entries that yarn made.

Is equivalent to npm install --save [pkgName, ...] but actually calls yarn add [--dev] [pkgName, ...].

Calls npm [cmd] [args].
