Check Node.js Installation:
Open a command prompt or terminal and type node -v to check if Node.js is installed and recognized. If it’s installed correctly, it should return the version number.
Add Node.js to PATH:
If the above command isn’t recognized, you may need to add Node.js to your system’s PATH manually.
Right-click on "This PC" or "Computer" and select "Properties."
Click on "Advanced system settings" and then "Environment Variables."
In the "System variables" section, find the Path variable and select it, then click "Edit."
Click "New" and add the path to your Node.js installation (e.g., C:Program Filesnodejs).
Click "OK" to save the changes.
I’m assuming you skipped the installation of Node (U gotta run an installer for this)
If u don’t have NodeJS installed, get it here
If you do, and it isn’t working… Verify you’re up to date, and not missing any files.
