Install nodejs on linux

#linux #node #ubuntu

every javascript developer need to use nodejs and npm. if you are using debian distribution, this post can make you happy for installation node js.

i see these example on google but everytime it doesnt work for me. with this way you can install every nodejs version even it doesnt exist on ubutu package manager.

Step 1:

sudo apt update

Step 2:

sudo apt install xz-utils

Step 3:

Download your nodejs

Step 4: (Extract file from .tar.xz)

sudo tar -xvf name_of_file

Step 5: (copy extracted folder files to computer root folder)

sudo cp -r directory_name/{bin,include,lib,share} /usr/

#NOTE: Dont replace anything instead of {bin,include,...}
#NOTE: dicrectory_name is your nodejs extracted folder
