Mac OS X
There is a universal installer available from the Node website specifically for OS X.
We need to follow these steps to install Node.js on a Mac:
- Visit the download page of the Node.js official website as mentioned earlier and click on the Mac OS X installer, which is independent of the processor type (32 or 64-bit).
- Once the download is complete, double-click on the .pkg file, which will launch the Node installer.
- Proceed through each step of the wizard, which should be fairly self-explanatory.
Also, if you have any of the OS X package managers installed, then you don't need to manually download the installer.
You may install Node.js via the respective package manager.
- Installation using Homebrew:
brew install node
- Installation using Mac ports:
port install nodejs
The installation of Node.js via either an installer or via the package managers will include npm alongside. So, we don't need to install it separately.
