NPM workaround

npm is rather inconsistent when it comes to pulling packages. This is well documented throughout npm Github issues: [#7862](https://github.com/npm/npm/issues/7862), [#9862](https://github.com/npm/npm/issues/9862), [#11596](https://github.com/npm/npm/issues/11596)

We have found that customers have more success by disabling logging during the npm install build phase `npm install --production --silent`. This significantly speeds up the dependency installation process and they are no longer experiencing timeouts. There is also an project called [npm-install-que](https://github.com/radiovisual/npm-install-que) that installs dependencies one at a time that customers have reported having success with.
