The package. json file is the heart of any Node project. It records important metadata about a project which is required before publishing to NPM, and also defines functional attributes of a project that npm uses to install dependencies, run scripts, and identify the entry point to our package.
The keywords property inside a package. json file is, as you may have guessed, a collection of keywords about a module. Keywords can help identify a package, related modules and software, and concepts.
What do you mean by scripts in package JSON? An npm script is a convenient way to bundle common shell commands like a set of built-in and custom scripts for your project. They are typically terminal commands or a string of terminal commands that help automate repetitive tasks.
private. If you set "private": true in your package. json, then npm will refuse to publish it. This is a way to prevent accidental publication of private repositories. Follow this answer to receive notifications.

**/.* matches any file beginning with a '.' (usually hidden files, like the .git folder) in an arbitrary sub-directory.
**/*.@(jpg|jpeg|gif|png) matches any file in an arbitrary sub-directory that ends with a '.' and exactly one of either 'jpg', 'jpeg', 'gif', or 'png'.

That would mean "any files preceded by . in their name, which are located inside all child directories".
Not exclusive to package.json, but rather standard wildcard notation. Meaning depends which key this value was assigned to.
