const rimraf = require("rimraf");

rimraf("/path/to/directory", (err) => {
  if (err) {
    console.error(err);
  } else {
    console.log("Directory has been deleted!");
  }
});

This code would delete the directory located at /path/to/directory and log a message to the console once the operation is completed.
