Emma 📦

Install the package you are looking for.

Powered by Algolia search API, npm-suggestions and the Yarn package manager.

Overview

Features

• Extremely fast: Search all the packages from NPM and Yarn using your terminal.
• Suggestions: Get packages selected based on the ones you have already selected.
• Build the stack: Search for multiple packages and install them with one keystroke.
• Automatic tool detection: Detects whether it should use Yarn or NPM, out of the box.
