Now that you are connected to your Pi via SSH, you can move on to installing the latest stable version of node.js.
Adding the Package Repository
The first step will be to add the NodeSource package repository to your Pi's /etc/apt/sources.list
file. You can do this by running the following command.
curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_10.x > nodesetup.sh # It's a good idea to inspect scripts before you run them: nano nodesetup.sh sudo bash nodesetup.sh sudo apt-get install -y nodejs
Next, we will install the latest version of node.js using apt-get.
sudo apt-get install -y nodejs
If everything went as expected, we can check the installed version of node.js by running node -v. At the time of this writing, the latest stable version of node.js was v10.11.0.
pi@raspberrypi ~ $ node -v v10.11.0
Now that we have node.js installed, we can look at the strengths of node.js development on a Raspberry Pi.
