Sometimes, `npm` will fail to install some packages because its cache gets in some weird state. Running `npm cache clean` ensures that the installation is done with fresh packages instead of the cached ones.

Thank you @juandazapata but I would rather not do this. If installation fail, they still get the error on the next command or when they run the server. I don't think we should try to work around npm bugs. :) |
