Forgive me if this a simple question. I would like to know what clearing the cache will do and how is this done.

 

Thank you.

Thank you. I've also read of running a cache clean through npm cache clean. Is this something that is done?

Yes but for very different reasons.

It's not something I've ever had cause to do myself.
