Sample Output

Prerequisites

Summary: node.js and git. You can skip to the next section if you already have these.

node.js platform v13.8.0+. Recent version is needed because of ES6 modules.
git incredible version control (needed in the background to install some dependencies on first install).

Optional: if you want easy switching between different node.js versions in the future and you are using unix based systems (macOS, Linux), you can install node.js via fantastic n (don't download it from nodejs.org in this case).

You can also install both node.js and git via Homebrew friendly package manager for macOS. n is still recommended for node.js though.

npm (Node Package Manager) is installed automatically with node.js install (just FYI).
