While doing npm install, inside node_modules .staging folder is getting created.

Reasons: This is a temporary folder where the modules will be kept untill npm downloads all the modules specified in the package.json.

What if .staging is still present after completion of npm install?
Reasons:
The space of the drive may be less. Please do npm install in a drive that has more space.
May be because of network issues, all packages couldn’t get installed.
