Installing Nodejs is an important part of getting your Chromebook up and running for Web Development. With the addition of Linux apps and the terminal developers can now install Nodejs and gain access to NPM. I will walk you through how to install it, but first you need to install the terminal. If you have not done this you can see how to at by reading Web Development With a Chromebook: Terminal — Setup.
