+NPM package versions & tags
+===========================
+
+To list available tags use command ``npm view $PGK``::
+
+  npm view npm
+  npm v npm
+  npm show npm
+
+It is a common practice for modules to provide following two tags::
+
+  latest
+  next
+
+To get all available versions::
+
+  npm show lodash@* version
+  npm show lodash versions
+  npm view npm --json
+
+To get the currently used version in the ``package.json``-kind of project::
+
+  npm list lodash
+
 Prune unused packages
