Stopped the process after executing npm start / macOS homebrew

Question

I was in the process of creating function components. When I noticed a problem was after I hit save and my terminal never updated me if it was a successful compile... I'll admit I panicked... a little. Then started running npm start and been stuck ever since. enter image description here enter image description here

I found out what it was: I performed an audit --force.

I didn't understand at the time. Here is an article I found, maybe it can help the next person. https://overreacted.io/npm-audit-broken-by-design/
