```

### Description

Print the folder where npm will install executables.

### Configuration

#### `global`

* Default: false
* Type: Boolean

folder instead of the current working directory. See
[folders](/configuring-npm/folders) for more on the differences in behavior.

* packages are installed into the `{prefix}/lib/node_modules` folder, instead
  of the current working directory.
