nodejs中node_modules中的@type文件夹是什么？

Question

I have node version 8.9.1 and npm version 5.5.1.

After installing packages using npm install , a folder named @types in node_modules is created. What is purpose of this folder?. Is it ok to delete it from node_modules folder?

Answer 1

This @types scoped package is where we can find a ton of useful type definitions, such as for example the type definitions of node that allow us to use require for example.
