/nod'ee/ [UK: from the children's books] 1. Small and un-useful, but demonstrating a point. Noddy programs are often written by people learning a new language or system. The archetypal noddy program is hello, world. Noddy code may be used to demonstrate a feature or bug of a compiler. May be used of real hardware or software to imply that it isn't worth using. "This editor's a bit noddy." 2. A program that is more or less instant to produce. In this use, the term does not necessarily connote uselessness, but describes a hack sufficiently trivial that it can be written and debugged while carrying on (and during the space of) a normal conversation. "I'll just throw together a noddy awk script to dump all the first fields." In North America this might be called a mickey mouse program. See toy program. 3. A simple (hence the name) language to handle text and interaction on the Memotech home computer. Has died with the machine. [Jargon File]node

Node Package Manager
(npm) The standard utility program installed with the Node.js programming language to locate and install library files (called "packages" in Node.js). Npm can save the list of packages used by a project (its dependencies) in the project's package.json file. It can then use this information to reinstall the same versions of those packages when building the project at a later date or in a different location. Npm also automatically recursively installs the dependencies of dependencies.
