Installing Yarn!
/home/neeraj_iwari/.yarn/bin/yarn
Yarn requires Node.js 4.0 or higher to be installed.
### 1. **Check if Node.js is Installed**
Run:
node -v
If it returns a version, then Node.js is installed. Otherwise, you need to install it.
### 2. **Install Node.js**
#### Using NodeSource:
curl -fsSL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_18.x | sudo -E bash -
sudo apt-get install -y nodejs
(Replace `18.x` with the latest LTS version.)
#### Or Using nvm (Recommended):
If you prefer **nvm** (Node Version Manager), install it with:
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.39.4/install.sh | bash
source ~/.bashrc
Then install Node.js:
nvm install --lts
nvm use --lts
### 3. **Verify Node.js and npm**
After installation, check:
node -v
npm -v
### 4. **Reinstall Yarn**
Once Node.js is installed, retry:
curl -o- -L https://yarnpkg.com/install.sh | bash
or install Yarn via npm:
npm install -g yarn

### **1. Remove Old Node.js (If Installed)**
Check if Node.js is installed:
node -v
If it's installed, remove it:
sudo apt remove nodejs -y
sudo apt autoremove -y
—
### **2. Install Node.js Using NodeSource (Latest Version)**
Run these commands:
curl -fsSL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_current.x | sudo -E bash -
sudo apt install -y nodejs
After installation, verify:
node -v
npm -v
This will install the latest **Node.js** and **npm**.
—
### **3. (Optional) Install Node.js via NVM (Recommended for Version Management)**
If you want more control over Node.js versions, use **nvm (Node Version Manager)**:
#### **Install nvm:**
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.39.4/install.sh | bash
source ~/.bashrc # or source ~/.zshrc if using Zsh
#### **Install the Latest Node.js:**
nvm install node
nvm use node
#### **Check Version:**
node -v
npm -v
This method allows switching between Node.js versions easily.
