can't find node_modules after mv command

Question

I accidently moved my node modules to the wrong place

www 
--html
--node_modules

I wanted to move them into the html folder so I used this command

mv node_modules /html

now they have disappeared where did they go?

Answer 1

It's look like you moved them to new directory on the root.
Try

ls -la /

You will probably see there a directory called html
/ this is the root directory of the filesystem.
