Installed package through npm but it does not show in folder

I was trying to install jquery through npm but after using following command:

npm install jquery

I opened the destination folder and the folder was empty. (I copied the following text from cmd)

> C:\Users\mandar\Desktop\Mady>npm install jquery

    C:\Users\mandar
    `-- [email protected]

> npm WARN enoent ENOENT: no such file or directory, open
> 'C:\Users\mandar\package.json'

    npm WARN mandar No description
    npm WARN mandar No repository field.
    npm WARN mandar No README data
    npm WARN mandar No license field.

What am I doing wrong? Please help me

As Suren Srapyan mentioned, in order to solve the problem, you need to create a package.json file, which describes the project you're working on. The easiest way to create a package.json file is to run npm init - this will invoke a terminal-based walkthrough of creating the package.json file.

You don't have a package.json. Create a one and then try to install jQuery. And instead use 

npm install jquery --save

command to save the jquery dependency in the package.json file

You can do it manually creating package.json or by npm init and passing the steps
