How to correctly install a package from github via NPM?

Question

Node.js

Hello.
Complete newbie to Node.js and Vue2. Help me to understand.
There is a project on laravel5, I want to make an admin panel on CoreUI\Vue2
Do I understand the principle of my actions correctly?
1. Create a folder adminApp: /resourses/assets/adminApp
2. Initialize npm
npm init
3. Clone the package from github:

git clone https://github.com/mrholek/CoreUI-Free-Bootstrap-Admin-Template.git

4. I have a folder CoreUI-Free-Bootstrap-Admin-Template there
And then a stupor. Should I build CoreUI-Free-Bootstrap-Admin-Template/Vue_Full_Project into some kind of package like CoreUI 1.0.0 and include it in the root ./package.json? Or is this Vue_Full_Project supposed to be the root of the application?

I think this package is the framework of the future project, so it is copied from the git and not installed as a module with npm.
