What is npm audit fix and how does it work?

npm audit fix is a command that automatically installs compatible updates to vulnerable dependencies in your project.

How does it determine which packages to update?

It analyzes the dependency tree and checks for known vulnerabilities against the npm registry, then suggests updates.

Can it break my project if I use it?

There's a risk it could introduce breaking changes, so it's recommended to review changes and test your project after running it.

What should I do if it doesn't fix all vulnerabilities?

You may need to manually update some packages or check for alternative solutions if certain vulnerabilities can't be fixed automatically.
