# npm bugs

> Report bugs for a package in a web browser.
> Attempts to open the package's bug tracker URL or support email.

- Report bugs for a specific package by opening the bug tracker for the specified package:

`npm bugs {{package_name}}`

- Open the bug tracker for the current package by searching for a `package.json` file and using its name:

`npm bugs`

- Configure the browser used to open URLs by setting your preferred browser for `npm` commands:

`npm config set browser {{true|false}}`
