### How to Install Node.js on Rocky Linux 8 A Comprehensive Guide

tutorials

Node.js is a powerful JavaScript runtime built on Chrome's V8 JavaScript engine, used for building scalable network applications. This guide will take you through the steps to install Node.js on Rocky Linux 8.

**Prerequisites**

Before you begin, make sure you have the following:

-   A Rocky Linux 8 server.
-   A user with `sudo` privileges.

**Step 1: Update the System**

First, update your package index to ensure all your installed packages are up-to-date:

> sudo dnf update

**Step 2: Install Node.js**

There are multiple ways to install Node.js on Rocky Linux 8. We'll cover two methods: using the NodeSource repository and using the default Rocky Linux repositories.

Method 1: Using NodeSource Repository

1.  Add NodeSource Repository:

    NodeSource provides an up-to-date Node.js package. To add the NodeSource repository, use the following command:

    > curl -sL https://rpm.nodesource.com/setup\_16.x | sudo bash -

2.  This script will add the NodeSource repository to your system and update the package index.

3.  Install Node.js:

    After adding the repository, install Node.js using the following command:

    > sudo dnf install nodejs

**Method 2: Using Rocky Linux Default Repositories**

1.  Install Node.js:

    If you prefer to use the default Rocky Linux repositories, you can install Node.js directly:

    > sudo dnf module list nodejs

    This command will show you the available Node.js versions. Install your preferred version with:

    > sudo dnf module install nodejs:14

**Step 3: Verify the Installation**

After installing Node.js, verify the installation by checking the installed version of Node.js and npm (Node Package Manager):

> node -v
> npm -v

These commands should display the version numbers of Node.js and npm, confirming that the installation was successful.

**Step 4: Install Development Tools (Optional)**

If you plan to compile and install native add-ons from npm, you may need to install development tools. Use the following command to install the necessary tools:

> sudo dnf groupinstall "Development Tools"

**Conclusion**

Congratulations! You've successfully installed Node.js on Rocky Linux 8. You can now start building and deploying Node.js applications on your server.
