I want to update my Browser-sync without updating all my node packages. How can I achieve this? My current version of Browser-sync does not have the Browser-sync GUI :(

To update a specific package, we need to run the npm update command followed by the package name. Sometimes, you want to update a package to the specific version in such cases you need to use npm install command by specifying a version number after the package name.
Use npm outdated to see Current and Latest version of all packages. Then npm i packageName@versionNumber to install specific version : example npm i [email protected] . Or npm i packageName@latest to install latest version : example npm i browser-sync@latest .
Most of the time you can just npm update (or pnpm update or yarn upgrade) a module to get the latest non breaking changes (respecting the semver specified in your package.json) (<-- read that last part again).
npm update browser-sync
-------
pnpm update browser-sync
-------
yarn upgrade browser-sync
- Use
[p]npm|yarn outdatedto see which modules have newer versions- Use
[p]npm update|yarn upgrade(without a package name) to update all modules
Major version upgrades:
In your case, it looks like you want the next major version (v2.x.x), which is likely to have breaking changes and you will need to update your app to accommodate those changes. You can install/save the latest 2.x.x by doing:
npm install browser-sync@2 --save-dev
-------
pnpm add browser-sync@2 --save-dev
-------
yarn add browser-sync@2 --dev
...or the latest 2.1.x by doing:
npm install [email protected] --save-dev
-------
pnpm add [email protected] --save-dev
-------
yarn add [email protected] --dev
...or the latest and greatest by doing:
npm install browser-sync@latest --save-dev
-------
pnpm add browser-sync@latest --save-dev
-------
yarn add browser-sync@latest --dev
Note: the last one is no different than doing this:
npm uninstall browser-sync --save-dev npm install browser-sync --save-dev ------- pnpm remove browser-sync --save-dev pnpm add browser-sync --save-dev ------- yarn remove browser-sync --dev yarn add browser-sync --devThe
--save-devpart is important. This will uninstall it, remove the value from your package.json, and then reinstall the latest version and save the new value to your package.json.

Or npm i packageName@latest to install latest version : example npm i browser-sync@latest.

Update Specific Package to the Latest Version:
npm update browser-sync
Update a Package By Version:
npm view browser-sync versions (view package version)
npm install browser-sync@2
Update all packages to the latest versions:
npm outdated (this checks the registry to see if any installed packages are currently outdated)
npm update --save/--save-dev (updates and saves dependencies in package.json)
Run a security audit for all the packages:
npm audit (submits a description of the dependencies configured in your project to your default registry and asks for a report of known vulnerabilities)
npm audit fix (fix vulnerabilities)
Updates all packages to the latest version:
yarn upgrade
Updates specific package to the latest version:
yarn upgrade browser-sync
Updates specific package to specific version:
yarn upgrade browser-sync@^2
Updates all dependencies, adhering to ranges specified in package.json:
pnpm up (alias of pnpm update)
Updates all dependencies, ignoring ranges specified in package.json:
pnpm up --latest
Updates browser-sync to the latest version on v2:
pnpm up browser-sync@2
Updates all dependencies under the @babel scope:
pnpm up "@babel/*"
