Installation

Node can be installed via direct download, installers, or the Node version manager:

  • You can install Node by directly downloading the source code or a pre-built installer specific to your workspace platform. Downloads are available at nodejs.org/en/download.
  • Cloud development services may come with Node preinstalled, such as in Cloud9, or will have specific instructions for adding and updating Node.

To test if the installation was successful, you can open the command line and run node -v to see if it correctly returns the version number.
