    • Verify installation: Run node --version and npm --version in your terminal.
    • Tip: Use nvm to manage Node.js versions easily.

  • Code Editor:

  • Git (for version control):

    • Install from git-scm.com.
    • Verify: Run git --version in your terminal.
    • Optional: Set up a GitHub account for project hosting.

  • Package Manager (optional but recommended):

    • Use npm (comes with Node.js) or install pnpm for faster dependency management.
    • Verify: Run npm --version or pnpm --version.

  • Basic Programming Knowledge:

    • Familiarity with variables, functions, and basic logic is helpful but not required.
    • If you're new, our JavaScript Basics section will guide you step-by-step.
