You can create the package.json file in your chosen location by running:

npm init

• You can answer the questions being asked when npm init is running or you can press enter until all the question are finished and update the questions at another time in the created package.json.
• After the package.json file is created, create a script as suggested here.

After creating the script run

node script.js

• Copy the dependencies listed in the terminal into the "dependencies": {} section of the package.json file you just created.
• Done.
