expressjsHow can I use npm to install Express.js?


NPM (Node Package Manager) is a package manager for JavaScript that makes it easy to install and manage packages. It can be used to install Express.js, a popular web application framework for Node.js.

To install Express.js using NPM, run the following command in your terminal:

npm install express

This will download and install the latest version of Express.js and its dependencies.

The command will also create a folder named node_modules in the current directory, which contains the Express.js package and its dependencies.

You can also specify a specific version of Express.js to install by using the @ symbol followed by the version number:

npm install [email protected]

Once the installation is complete, you can import Express.js into your project by requiring the package:

const express = require('express');
