Is safe to delete .cache folder in node_modules?

My project size reached 1.2GB, and it was caused by the .cache folder inside the npm module. Is it safe if I delete that folder?

generally, it is safe to delete the node_modules folder, as it can be regenerated by the package manager.
Package versions may change during reinstall (unless you have a *.lock file)
