only-package-manager

Use only-package-manager to run the right package manager.

Why

Currently there are three main nodejs package managers, namely - npm, yarn & pnpm. Some projects use npm or some uses yarn or pnpm. Having to remember the syntax of all three is quite confusing for me and might be for you.

Therefor using only-package-manager I have to just remember ONE default syntax for all the basic & the mostly used commands and the CLI will take care of running the right command based on the package manager the project is using.

I made this project getting inspired by @antfu's ni project and wanted to make one with my own set of syntax & to practice TypeScript. So a Huge credit to Him🙌
