Step 5 of 6

Check that Node works.

After install, check Node and npm.

Open a fresh iTerm2 window first

A fresh window gives iTerm2 a clean start. Then run the two checks.

Check Node

Type only the lines marked TYPE THIS. Do not type lines marked MAC REPLIES or NOTE.

TYPE THISnode -v
MAC REPLIESv followed by version numbers
NOTEYour number may be different. That is normal.

Check npm

Type only the lines marked TYPE THIS. Do not type lines marked MAC REPLIES or NOTE.

TYPE THISnpm -v
MAC REPLIESversion numbers
NOTEIf both commands show version numbers, the install worked.

If the Mac says command not found

Open a new iTerm2 window and try again. If it still fails, check that you ran every official line.
