### Description
|
|
|
|
Selects a dependency in the current project and opens the package folder in
|
|
the default editor (or whatever you've configured as the npm `editor`
|
|
config -- see [`npm-config`](npm-config).)
|
|
|
|
After it has been edited, the package is rebuilt so as to pick up any
|
|
changes in compiled packages.
|
|
|
|
For instance, you can do `npm install connect` to install connect
|
|
into your package, and then `npm edit connect` to make a few
|
|
changes to your locally installed copy.
|
|
|
|
