Node comes with npm npm is a software registry that serves over 1.3 million packages. Even on other systems, installing node utilities globally with different versions seems like asking for trouble. I don’t recommend installing multiple versions side by side since the node version manager (NVM) does not officially support Windows – still, there are alternatives like nvm-windows or nodist.
The Active release line often gets new features and other improvements beside security patches and bug fixes, and the Maintenance only gets the latter. There are two separate kinds of LTS releases: Active and Maintenance. The acronym is often used to mark Node.js release lines that will be maintained and supported for an extended period. Step 2: Install Node.js on Windows 10ĭownload and install Node.js. You can paste text into the window with the middle mouse button (just like on popular Linux terminals). This is not a cmd.exe window, so check out the Options (click on the icon in the upper left corner). bash_profile, which is going to be executed when you open a bash window. This is a nice bash environment, so feel free to create a. I usually have a Projects folder in my home directory. To set it up, right-click on the folder, select “Git bash here” and check git’s version with git -version. Step 1: Install Gitįirst, let’s install Git. Use the default settings they are quite sensible. I would not recommend Cygwin for Node, and while VirtualBox is free, I always had problems with running a Linux VM on a Windows machine. I know that this is not always possible in corporate environments, but it is important not to let your tools fall behind.Įverything we install will be done natively. In this tutorial we will use the newest tools and applications available (and use the 64bit version of them). While 7 is still pretty popular and 10 had some bad press (due to metrics and extensive data collection), we decided to go with Windows 10 this time, because having an up to date operating system is crucial for security reasons. This is the reason why we had such a hard time choosing between Windows 7 and Windows 10 as a topic of this post. Preparationĭeveloping with Node.js on Windows used to be pretty cumbersome, but it’s much better now than it was a year or two ago. Note, that the primary focus right now is just setting up a developer environment for a Node.js project, not running one. I will cover deployment to Azure later, but that is beyond the scope of this post. environment on Windows 10, and I’ll checkout and run the project I’m currently working on (which depends on koa, pg, amqplib and other modules).
Node.js is free of locks, so there's no chance to dead-lock any process.
In this article, I will show how you can set up a Node.js Node.js is an asynchronous event-driven JavaScript runtime and is the most effective when building scalable network applications.
