Get Package Root

Read Original

This article discusses a common Node.js development problem: reliably finding a package's root directory. It explains that `require.resolve` only gives the main entry path, which can vary. The solution is to resolve the package's `package.json` file instead, as it's always at the root, and then use `path.dirname` to get the directory path.
