Please don't do this. The node_modules directory can become large very quickly often comprising thousands of files. When hundreds of people are competing with thousands of file descriptors all at once things don't work reliably. This isn't good for your users either because npm packages are not typically optimized for distribution on the web.

Here is a good guide that may help with setting up a project. http://blog.keithcirkel.co.uk/how-to-use-npm-as-a-build-tool/
