 We should use the latest stable release of npm, this is the v6 branch, the
 current version is `6.1.0`

 Using a standardised version of npm allows developers contributing to core
 to have a common local configuration eliminating potential lock file
 compatibilities that can occur when using npm v5 vs v6

 This will also require a systems request for the build server to be
 updated to npm `6.1.0`, currently, the build server is using npm `5.5.1`,

 server/
