ℹ️Draft: I only started this post recently, it will be updated soon

With bre you can install node using brew install node;

MacOs / Linux / Windows

Remove or update/downgrade Node.js

You can use nvm to modify the installed version of node.

E.g. nvm install 20 will install the current node 20 version.

If you simply type nvm you will get the list of all the options.

Angular

Install

Be sure that node is installed.

To install Angular type:

npm install -g @angular/cli 

With -g you install angular globally, without the parameter only at project's level.

Verify the installed version

You can use ng to verify the installed version.

➜  ~ ng v
