Where is the node_modules directory located in a React Native project?

In a simple JavaScript application that utilizes npm modules, I have a package.json, and after running npm install I get a node_modules folder.

How does this work in React Native, where is the node_modules directory in a React Native project?

As you said you can see the module in when you do ls in terminal. That means that "node_module" is in .gitignore. Atom excludes files which are gitignored. You can disable that settings. Following are the steps for mac. Go to atom preferences > Core > and untick "Exclude VCS Ignored Path" option.

There will be similar settings in windows also if you are developing in windows

The location should be in the root of your project. Assume your root project directory on AwesomeProject it should be on AwesomeProject/node_modules.

How do you create your react native app ? If you using create-react-native-app it will automatically install the npm packages.

create-react-native-app AwesomeProject
cd AwesomeProject
npm start

If not, try run npm install on your root project (contain package.json).
