I've got a task that involves writing a code and I carried it out quite easily. I need to submit my solution to GitHub – according to the plan, I forked a certain repository and even cloned it to my hard drive using VS code. However, I was also told to install NPM dependencies to that newly created folder.

There are many manuals on Internet, but almost no one of them explains how to do it in a comprehensible way. As a beginner, I often struggle with all these new keywords, commands, etc and I would like to make things somewhat clearer. Do you have an idea how to get through it?

If you have already installed npm, in project directory use command

npm install

You can start with npm init in your folder. Then package.json file will be created. you can add dependencies you want to add, and run npm install.
