As Javascript is client side based, you will probably need node.js for your serverside. That being said, here are some shortcuts for Javascript terminal usage -

1. Installing -

Regular: npm install
Shortcut: npm i

2. Testing -

Regular: npm test
Shortcut: npm t

3.Getting Help -

Regular: npm --help
Shortcut: npm -h

4. Global Flag -

Regular: --global
Shortcut -g

5. Saving as a Development Dependency -

Regular: --save-dev
Shortcut: -D

Accepting 'npm init' Defaults -

Regular: npm init --yes OR npm init --force
Shortcut: npm init -y OR npm init -f

Note that you no longer need to use '--save' or '-S' to save packages, as that is now the default. To install a package without saving it, use the '--no-save' flag.

You can find many more shortcuts at - npm Tricks for Faster JavaScript Development [^] or a basic development setup tutorial at - JavaScript Tutorial – How to Set Up a Front End Development Project [^]
