#Getting Started With Node
So... Enterprise development is a little crazy. I think he managed to give us a bare idea of what we're meant to do but he left out some really important things. So this is a post for people who might not be familiar with Node.js etc.
Firstly, it can be a bit of a pain to install properly. Luckily there's a great project called nvm (node version manager) that can make the installation and management of node versions on *nix really easy. nvm can be installed in a single line. Follow the instructions to install in the link.
Once installed you can install node and npm with the following
nvm install 4.2.3 #install node
nvm use 4.2.3 #tell nvm to place the installation in the right directories
