Unclear how to uninstall or update, modus sticky on machine

[danstarns]

My Modus app stopped working from my current v0.13.9 to latest v0.17.2.

I tried updating my CLI, but its not clear how to do this and even when using npm uninstall modus and hyp cli stays around on my machine....

How to properly update both hyp and modus cli?

• Update docs to show how to update
• Add warning in the CLI that you are on a outdated version - cli: add update prompt modus#811
• Update the docs to remove the not found uninstall method - uninstall modus docs#119
• Add the uninstall method and properly cleanup modus
• Add a modus update command that handles this for you

What I tried:

1. Removing node_modules in my project
2. npm uninstall -g @hypermode/modus-cli
3. npm update -g @hypermode/modus-cli@latest
4. npm update -g @hypermode/modus-cli@0.17.2
5. npm uninstall -g @hypermode/hyp-cli
6. npm update -g @hypermode/hyp-cli@latest

After all these efforts including restarting my machine when running:

modus -v

Modus is still on my machine and the version remains v0.13.9

By running:

which modus
/Users/danielstarns/.modus/cli/bin/modus

Then running:

rm -fr /Users/danielstarns/.modus/cli/bin/modus

Succesfully removed modus cli from my machine.

Then I could install again:

➜  ~ npm i -g @hypermode/modus-cli

  run `npm fund` for details
➜  ~ modus -v
v0.17.2

We used to give an option for install via curl execution of install.sh script, which put the Modus cli in the .modus folder. That is incompatible with the NPM install, because the PATH variable will pick one over the other.

Also, the Modus CLI and they Hyp CLI are each installed separately.
