Remove a Package from Your Dependencies

Remove a Package from Your Dependencies

You should go over to the package.json file in your project. Removing a package is as simple as going into your dependencies section and removing the line with the corresponding item. In the following example "express" is removed from package.json:

Before

"dependencies": {
    "express": "^4.16.4",
    "helmet": "^3.14.0"
  },

After

"dependencies": {
    "express": "^4.16.4",
  },
