🗑 Uninstalling

If you need to uninstall Chiks:

1. Uninstall the package:

npm uninstall -g chiks

2. Remove the binary:

NOTE: Due to npm v7+, uninstall scripts won't work, so the package's preuninstall script cannot remove the binary from your system. That's why you need to manually remove the binary as shown above.
