Node Package Configurator

Node Package Configurator (npc) generates a dynamic web form out of a JSON schema. The user fills the forms, npc resolves the JSON schema into a JSON object, and saves the result locally for persistent storage.
On Windows, npc saves the config file in the user App Data. Example: C:\users\vmorneau\App Data\yourModuleName
On MacOS, npc saves the file in the library preference folder. Example: ~/Library/Preferences/yourModuleName
On Linux, npc saves the file in the root folder. Example: ~/yourModuleName
You can retrieve this file (your project configuration) at any time.
