### Synopsis
<!-- AUTOGENERATED USAGE DESCRIPTIONS -->
### Description
This command tries to guess at the likely location of a package's
documentation URL, and then tries to open it using the
[`--browser` config](/using-npm/config#browser) param. You can pass multiple
package names at once. If no package name is provided, it will search for a
`package.json` in the current folder and use the `name` property.
