node -v
npm -v

The commands above should display the current Node and NPM versions.

# ▶️️️️️ Step 2: Using Different Node Version. (optional)

If your Node version is different from the required one, you can install and use NVM – Node Version Manager (opens new window) This manager allows to use the specific Node version per project.

Navigate your termnial working directory to 📁 SOURCE folder. The following command will set the currently used NodeJS version to the required one:

nvm use
