#node #tutorial

Let's have a look at the easiest way to install Node.js on your WSL, Mac, or Ubuntu system.

We're going to be using a tool called nvm.

If you prefer, you can watch my 4-minute video on installing Node.js instead:

Go to the GitHub page for nvm.
Copy and paste the install script into your command line. At the time of writing, 0.39.3 is the latest version:
```
curl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.39.3/install.sh | bash
```
Hit Enter. Once installation is complete, close and re-open your terminal window.
Now that nvm is installed, you can install the latest version of Node.js by typing:
```
nvm install node
```
That's it! You should now be able to type node --version and see that the latest version is installed.
