title: Is it ok to delete all files and folders in ec2-user directory in Amazon-EC2 linux?
body: <p>My first time using Amazon-EC2 and NodeJS. After a day of playing the ec2-user directory looks messy since I was trying to install packages in wrong folders.</p>
  
  <p>I want to delete everything and start anew.</p>
  
  <p>Is it ok to delete everything in ec2-user directory or some files needs to be kept?</p>
