<div class="doc-box doc-info" markdown="1">
By default with version npm 5.0+, `npm install` adds the module to the `dependencies` list in the `package.json` file; with earlier versions of npm, you must specify the `--save` option explicitly. Then, afterwards, running `npm install` in the app directory will automatically install modules in the dependencies list.

</div>


## Verify your installation

After installing, confirm Express is available in your project:

```bash
npm ls express
```

You should see `express@x.x.x` in the output. If the package
is missing, re-run the install command above.
