Recommended npm upgrade script on Windows #24

Closed danilosampaio closed 9 years ago

danilosampaio commented 9 years ago

Added npm-windows-upgrade tool as the recommended npm upgrade script on Windows.

Linking to the guide seems like a first good step. Tools are good, but it's quite an overhead.

So, I'd rephrase this line to be less "we recommend" and more "an option is" to use that tool. And I'd move it after the documentation links.

Hi @SBoudrias

something like:

See this guide if you're having trouble upgrading: https://github.com/npm/npm/wiki/Troubleshooting#upgrading-on-windows Upgrading npm on Windows requires some manual steps, that can be easier by using the npm-windows-upgrade tool: https://github.com/felixrieseberg/npm-windows-upgrade

Maybe "You might want to use npm-windows-upgrade to simplify the updating process"

SBoudrias commented 9 years ago

Actually, I just realized the npm documentation link to this tool directly at the top.

I think this is plenty enough for windows user.
