Hi @tcontrada
as a side note, when sharing code of any sort, it helps to format it properly - this post explains how/why: How to share code or flow json
The .node-red/nodes directory is used to load local nodes that are not packaged as a module - so the package.json is ignored and it will load any .js/.html file pair it can find.
Are there any error messages in the log when you start Node-RED related to your node?
