2.) Enter node or npm in the command line to run a script or install a package.

$ npm install learnyounode -g

Mac

If you have homebrew installed it is recommended to use it to install node because it will set your path and permissions settings properly:

$ brew install node

If you don't feel like using homebrew you can also use the Installer. However: Please note that the installer will setup your system in a way that requires you to install global packages as sudo.

npm install learnyounode -g becomes sudo npm install learnyounode -g
