+> Manage your node projects from user interface
+
+### RATIONALE
+* **No**de **P**roject **M**anager sounded very close to **Nopalm**(also sounding similar to `Napalm` :)). Hence the name!
+* I always faced difficulties in searching a relevant package while working on a node project and heavily craved for an UI since coming back and forth between browser and terminal killed productivity
+* To solve this, I thought of developing a <span style="color:#12344d; font-weight: bold">Nopalm (Node Project Manager)</span> with an exciting web user interface to search, install and uninstall packages from a single place
+* You can also scaffold a **new node project**
+* This project is heavily inspired from [Vue-UI](https://cli.vuejs.org/dev-guide/ui-api.html)
+
+### USAGE
+* Install the npm package globally and run the local server inside any node project directory / empty directory
+   ```shell
+    npm i -g nopalm
+    cd /path/to/target_dir && nopalm
+   ```
+* Visit [http://localhost:8001](http://localhost:8001) to start managing your node project
+
+### To test locally
+##### Pre installed requirements
+- **node > 10**
+- **npm** or **yarn**
+##### Steps
+* Clone the repository
+* Go to the **`client/`** folder and create **`.env.development.local`** and copy the following content
+    ```shell
+    REACT_APP_API_BASE_URL='http://localhost:8001'
+    ```
+* Run the react client
+    ```shell
+    cd client
+    npm i
+    npm run start
+* To run in an existing node project, go to the that particular directory and run this command
+    ```shell
+    npm run dev --prefix /path/to/nopalm
+    ```
+* Run the same command in an empty directory to create new node project !
+* Visit [http://localhost:3000](http://localhost:3000) to run this in development mode

+This project was bootstrapped with [Create React App](https://github.com/facebook/create-react-app).
+
+## Available Scripts
+
+In the project directory, you can run:
+
+### `yarn start`
+
+Runs the app in the development mode.<br />
+Open [http://localhost:3000](http://localhost:3000) to view it in the browser.
+
+The page will reload if you make edits.<br />
+You will also see any lint errors in the console.
+
+### `yarn test`
+
+Launches the test runner in the interactive watch mode.<br />
+See the section about [running tests](https://facebook.github.io/create-react-app/docs/running-tests) for more information.
+
+### `yarn build`
+
+Builds the app for production to the `build` folder.<br />
+It correctly bundles React in production mode and optimizes the build for the best performance.
+
+The build is minified and the filenames include the hashes.<br />
+Your app is ready to be deployed!
+
+See the section about [deployment](https://facebook.github.io/create-react-app/docs/deployment) for more information.
+
+### `yarn eject`
+
+**Note: this is a one-way operation. Once you `eject`, you can’t go back!**
+
+If you aren’t satisfied with the build tool and configuration choices, you can `eject` at any time. This command will remove the single build dependency from your project.
+
+Instead, it will copy all the configuration files and the transitive dependencies (webpack, Babel, ESLint, etc) right into your project so you have full control over them. All of the commands except `eject` will still work, but they will point to the copied scripts so you can tweak them. At this point you’re on your own.
+
+You don’t have to ever use `eject`. The curated feature set is suitable for small and middle deployments, and you shouldn’t feel obligated to use this feature. However we understand that this tool wouldn’t be useful if you couldn’t customize it when you are ready for it.
