In Dev build, it seems like if project contains package.json, IDE needs node modules folder and if missing, marks project as "broken". I think this shouldn't happen - just because project has package.json, doesn't mean it has any dependencies (no dependencies => no node_modules folder). - if you e.g. create new HTML5 project from online template AngularJS Seed or AngularJS Phone Catalog (HTML5 sample project), they are marked as broken - dependencies can be installed globally in "any" folder outside of project Maybe just bubble notification like "You might want to run npm install" should be enough. It would open just once on project creation or first project open.

I noticed if I run NPM install from IDE, the warning about missing node modules folder doesn't go away. Bubble notification would "solve" this as well :)

Thank you, #1 is fixed and #2 makes sense that they are marked as "broken" because they really :) Product Version: NetBeans IDE Dev (Build 201407040001) Java: 1.8.0_05; Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM 25.5-b02 Runtime: Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment 1.8.0_05-b13 System: Linux version 3.13.0-29-generic running on i386; UTF-8; en_US (nb)
