How to make `npm install` libraries persistent when using git?

I'm scaffolding the vue app frontend using webpack:

vue init webpack frontend
cd frontend

For this app, I need - among others - axios, hence:

npm install axios

Now I push the code to the repo and clone the repo from another computer.

My question is:

How do I make sure all the required npm libraries are there on the new computer so that npm run build succeeds?

When you check out the repo on a new system, you will run

npm install

to fetch all the node_modules associated with the project. Make sure your package-lock.json was checked into git so that you will be guaranteed to fetch the exact same versions as were intended in the commit.
