Newbish dumpster-fire test project for basic Express, MongoDB, and GitHub (if you see this, you probably don't want to look at it unless you're a pro and are up for a good laugh).
How to install and use (the easy route)
- Either open the Ubuntu terminal or get the latest Ubuntu terminal for Windows 10 The version I'm using at the time of this writing is version 18.04
- From the terminal: a) $ sudo apt update b) You'll see a notification of the number of packages that can be upgraded. I tend to ignore this (which isn't really a good idea, but I do it anyway). c) $ sudo apt install nodejs Verify that it installed successfully by typing either: nodejs --version OR nodejs -v d) $ sudo apt install npm e) Verify install by checking version (just use "npm -v")
