Summary
This tutorial demonstrates how to create an executable script using Node Package Manager (npm) and its utility npx. The process involves creating a file specifically for the logic, specifying the executable file in package.json, starting the file with a shebang, and ensuring the code will run whenever the file is executed. Additionally, handling arguments and executing logic from the main package are discussed. Finally, validating command inputs and publishing and using the package are covered.
