How to Install NPM in VS Code

‍

NPM is installed with Node.js. VS Code does not install npm directly; it uses it through the terminal. You can verify it by running node -v and npm -v. Here is the step-by-step process to do that:

1. After successful installation of Node.js on your computer, run it in VS Code to test it.
2. Launch VS Code and navigate to the top menu, then click ‘Terminal’.
3. Once the terminal is open, run node -v to verify that Node.js was installed successfully.
4. Now run npm -v to verify npm installation.
5. An output like v20.x.x or 10.x.x will be displayed, indicating that the installation was successful.
