I'm a complete beginner at Node so maybe my question is probably very naive, sorry about that.
I created my first project at work with Grunt.
Grunt uses Node, so now I have a nice folder node_modules at the root of my project, with several modules inside. Everything is working fine.
I added node_modules/* in my .gitignore, assuming that I would rebuild it easily from another place.
Then I go home, I retrieve my project with git and now I don't know how to rebuild the node modules.
Is there an npm command that would read package.json?

The npm-rebuild command will run npm build command on the matched folders. This command is particularly useful when you install a new version of node, and you have to recompile all your C++ addons with the new binary. This command opens a package repository page in the browser.
There are two ways to clean up the node_modules folder: Delete the folder and reinstall. Use npm prune (starting with npm version 6)
Try npm i, a short version of npm install inside your directory where package.json exists.
