# ---: Install Node.js

# Install Node.js in Raspberry Pi

# Step 1 - Download and Run

Launch the Terminal and execute the command below. In our case, we are connecting to the Raspberry Pi over SSH.

sudo su
curl -fsSL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_16.x | bash -

nodejs
nodejs

As of writing this post, the latest version of NodeJS is version 17. To get the newest nodejs repository, please check the NodeSource GitHub page.

But I recommend not installing 17 but rather version 16. Every odd number of Node is a sort of experimental edition and should not be used in production.

# Step 2 - Next run the following command

sudo apt install nodejs

# Last step - Test Installation

node -- version
npm --version

All Done
