## Docs for a package in a web browser maybe
### Synopsis
```bash
npm docs [<pkgname> [<pkgname> ...]]
npm docs .
npm home [<pkgname> [<pkgname> ...]]
npm home .
```
### Description
This command tries to guess at the likely location of a package's
documentation URL, and then tries to open it using the `--browser`
config param. You can pass multiple package names at once. If no
package name is provided, it will search for a `package.json` in
the current folder and use the `name` property.
### Configuration
#### browser
* Default: OS X: `"open"`, Windows: `"start"`, Others: `"xdg-open"`
* Type: String
The browser that is called by the `npm docs` command to open websites.
#### registry
* Default: https://registry.npmjs.org/
* Type: url
The base URL of the npm package registry.
