How to install npm build manager on LinuxLite OS
To install npm build manager on LinuxLiteOS you have first download an archive (you will get nodejs and npm) from https://www.npmjs.com/get-npm
After downloading unpack it:
$ tar -xvf node-v12.16.2-linux-x64.tar.xz -C /opt
Then let's take a look, what is inside:
$ ls /opt/node-v12.16.2-linux-x64/bin
what we see:
$ node npm npx
So, let's try to run them (if it works :):
So, now we are here:
$ /opt/node-v12.16.2-linux-x64/bin
In order to verify, if program is installed, it's enough to check the version:
$ ./node --version
$ v12.16.2
Node works! Good. Let's continue with npm and npx:
$ ./npm --version
6.14.4
npm works too.
$ ./npx --version
$ 6.14.4
npx works too.
Well done!
