# NodeJS
# Package Symlink
- We can link a package to a local copy of it in our
node_modules
folder withyarn link
. This is useful for making changes to packages and for package development. In VSCode, the symlinks are indicated by a small arrow next to the folder. The symlink will have effect on all branches and will only be removed if we explictely remove it or if werm rf
thenode_modules
folder.
