22 ### Synopsis
23
24 ```bash
25 npm start [-- <args>]
26 ```
27
28 ### Description
29
30 This runs an arbitrary command specified in the package's `"start"` property of its `"scripts"` object. If no `"start"` property is specified on the `"scripts"` object, it will run `node server.js`.
31
32 As of [`npm@2.0.0`](https://blog.npmjs.org/post/98131109725/npm-2-0-0), you can use custom arguments when executing scripts. Refer to [`npm run-script`](/cli/v6/commands/npm-run-script) for more details.
