pnpm: Download a package and install it [g]lobally.

pnpm

$ pnpm add -g ${module_name}

try on your machine

The command pnpm add -g ${module_name} is used to install a Node.js module globally using the package manager pnpm.

Here is what each part of the command means:

pnpm: This is the command-line interface for pnpm, a fast and deterministic package manager for Node.js. It is an alternative to npm and yarn.
add: This is the pnpm command used to add packages to a project.
-g: This flag stands for "global" and is used to install the module globally on your system. Installing a module globally means that it will be available for use in any project on your machine, rather than being installed locally in a specific project's node_modules directory.
${module_name}: This is a placeholder for the name of the module you want to install. You should replace ${module_name} with the actual name of the module you want to install globally.

When you run the command pnpm add -g ${module_name}, pnpm will download and install the specified module globally on your system, making it accessible for use in any project.

This explanation was created by an AI. In most cases those are correct. But please always be careful and never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
