node_modules

The package manager stores the dependencies of your project in the node_modules/ directory.

The package manager (npm or yarn or pnpm or bun or deno) creates this directory to store the dependencies of your project.

This directory should be added to your .gitignore file to avoid pushing the dependencies to your repository.
