Node Js Latest Version Download for Windows Introduction node js latest version download for windows Introduction. I had recently purchased a Windows 10 laptop and I wanted to install Node.js. I usually prefer to use a Node Version Manager to install Node.js. The reason I choose to do that is because I usually have to work with multiple applications that need require different Node.js versions, and using a node version manager (NVM) it is very easy to switch versions. This article is more of a user guide for folks who are interested to install a Node Version Manager for Windows 10 Operating System. A Quick Look at the Key Terminologies. I wanted to mention the following terminologies for absolute beginners. So, feel free, to skip this section, if you are already familiar. nvm - Node Version Manager. It is a tool that allows you to download and install Node.js. It allows you to pick and choose the Node.js version that you wish to use. Node.js - It is a platform for running JavaScript applications. npm - Node Package Manager. It is a tool that allows you to install JavaScript packages. npm comes along with Node.js. So, if you have installed Node.js, you'll have npm installed as well. Installing NVM for Windows 10. Go to the nvm-windows Git Repository. Using your browser navigate to the Git repository for nvm-windows located over here. Click on the 'nvm-setup.zip' link from the 'assets' table as shown in the image below. Locate the Zip File & Extract. The Zip file should have been downloaded to your Downloads folder (or where ever you have configured your downloads to be saved). Unzip/Extract the contents to the same folder. You should have the file nvm-setup.exe extracted in the same folder. Install NVM. Double-Click on the executable file to launch the installer. Choose 'I accept the agreement' option. Select destination to install. Select Symlink for Node.js. Click on Install & once it completes, click on the 'Finish' button. Confirm that the 'NVM' successfully installed. Open your command line terminal. Type the below command to verify if your nvm installation was successful. Exit fullscreen mode. Install npm. You can now install 'npm' using the following command. Exit fullscreen mode. Let us install the latest version of npm. (As of Sep 2020) Specify the version of npm that you choose to use. Using the below command to specify the version of npm that you wish to use. In our case, since we have only one version installed. Let's go with that. Exit fullscreen mode. Check npm & nodejs versions. You can confirm the nodejs and npm versions through the commands below. Exit fullscreen mode. Install Another npm Version. Repeat the above steps. Install Completed & Select the version using the 'nvm use' command. Confirm that the environment now points to the new Node.js and npm versions. List all Versions. You can use the nvm list command to list all the npm and Node.js versions installed. Exit fullscreen mode. Conclusion. I hope the detailed user-guide helped you setup the Node Version Manager (nvm) in your Windows 10 machine. Thank you for reading the article and do share it if you found it useful. Downloading and installing Node.js and npm. To publish and install packages to and from the public npm registry or your company's npm Enterprise registry, you must install Node.js and the npm command line interface using either a Node version manager or a Node installer. We strongly recommend using a Node version manager like nvm to install Node.js and npm. We do not recommend using a Node installer, since the Node installation process installs npm in a directory with local permissions and can cause permissions errors when you run npm packages globally. Note: npm Enterprise requires npm 4.4.x or greater. To download the latest version of npm, on the command line, run the following command: Checking your version of npm and Node.js. To see if you already have Node.js and npm installed and check the installed version, run the following commands: Using a Node version manager to install Node.js and npm. Node version managers allow you to install and switch between multiple versions of Node.js and npm on your system so you can test your applications on multiple versions of npm to ensure they work for users on different versions. OSX or Linux Node version managers. Windows Node version managers. Using a Node installer to install Node.js and npm. If you are unable to use a Node version manager, you can use a Node installer to install both Node.js and npm on your system. If you use Linux, we recommend that you use a NodeSource installer. OS X or Windows Node installers. If you're using OS X or Windows, use one of the installers from the Node.js download page. Be sure to install the version labeled LTS . Other versions have not yet been tested with npm. Linux or other operating systems Node installers. If you're using Linux or another operating system, use one of the following installers: (recommended) One of the installers on the Node.js download page. Or see this page to install npm for Linux in the way many Linux developers prefer. Step-by-Step Guide On How To Update Node JS To Latest Version.
