FEATURE REQUEST

Currently, a new project can be scaffolded using ng new myProject. which by default uses npm to install node_modules. and, we can also set yarn instead of npm.

Installation time for the packages by cli is always greater than manual npm install or yarn install.

Hence there is an option to skip install the npm packages by using ng new myProject --skip-install.

Can we globally set an option to skip install the packages globally for all new projects?

@filipesilva .

In my PC. I made a rough calculation

2Minutes-5sec. Installation via ng new myProject

40seconds

ng new myProject --skip-install
cd myProject
npm install (took 40s)

I think it would be better to fix whatever it makes it slow than to add new functionality that is essentially an workaround.

I was just saying If an option to set skip install for new projects globally will be a nice one not stating as a workaround.
