What is the problem this feature will solve?

currently, to run scripts in ./node_modules/.bin, you have to use npx scriptname or ./node_modules/.bin/scriptname, since the .bin folder is not in your PATH

What is the feature you are proposing to solve the problem?

i found out that you can add relative paths to the PATH variable on both windows and linux. this means the problem can be easily solved by adding ./node_modules/.bin to your PATH. i think node should do this on install

What alternatives have you considered?

IDEs can do it. webstorm currently does but vscode does not. microsoft/vscode#94067
