This has already been the case for 4 years, and npm has already had 2 more major versions since then. Handy info for people who didn't know, but why present it as if it's a new feature?
I don't present it as a new feature?
That's why I mentioned it's been available since NPM 5, but a lot of people still default to typing --save in their installs scripts, so I thought it would be a good idea to make this public announcement again.
I lead a team of backend and frontend engineers delivering solutions for my current employer. Currently looking for an opportunity to focus on iOS development.
This is good info for me as there are tutorials out there in the wild that has the —save argument and I always wondered why it was needed. Now I know its no longer needed. Good to know.
Some people aren’t aware of features, and it was a nice rundown of different commands. The author didn’t say it was a new feature, he specifically mentioned which NPM version came with the update.

Author probably didn't know about this until recently.
I do know about it, but I saw a lot of tutorials still mention the --save command, so wanted to make this publicly know ❤️
Exactly! People still mention the old way to save dependencies even nowadays
