How to release npm package

npm init -y

This initializes a package.json file. Next, create an executable script file, let's say hello.js, with the following content:

#!/usr/bin/env node

console.log('Hello World!');

Now, update your package.json file to include the "bin" field:

{
  "name": "your-tool",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "description": "Your description",
  "bin": {
    "hello": "./hello.js"
  },
  "scripts": {
    "test": "echo \"Error: no test specified\" && exit 1"
  },
  "keywords": [],
  "author": "Your Name",
  "license": "MIT"
}

Replace "your-tool" with your desired package name and update other fields accordingly. Now, you can test your tool locally by running:

npx ./

Finally, to publish your tool, you need to create an account on npm (if you haven't already). Once that's done, you can use the following command to publish your tool:

npm login
npm publish --access public

Replace "public" with "restricted" if you want to publish it as a restricted package. Now, users can install and use your tool globally with:

npx your-tool

Make sure to replace "your-tool" with the actual name of your npm package.
