How to Upgrade Node.js Version in Ubuntu?

By Hardik Savani November 5, 2023 Category : Installation Ubuntu Node JS

Node.js is an open-source, cross-platform, server-side runtime environment that allows developers to run JavaScript code outside of a web browser. It uses the V8 JavaScript engine, which is the same engine that powers Google Chrome.

Node.js was initially released in 2009 by Ryan Dahl and has since become a popular tool for building scalable and high-performance web applications. It provides an event-driven, non-blocking I/O model that makes it lightweight and efficient, which makes it ideal for building real-time applications, APIs, and microservices.

In this post i want to share about how to update node version in ubuntu OS. I would like to share this post because i try lot to update my node js package. When i install 0.10.25 nodejs but i want to update nodejs current latest version. At that time i did try lot to upgrade but i can't update my node.

I have ubuntu 14.04 OS. One time i was working on native script framework and i need to update nodejs package at that time my Project Manager give me some command for update nodejs current version. I don't know where he found but now my system have latest version of node. So if you also want to update then run following command.

sudo npm cache clean -f

sudo npm install -g n

sudo n stable

node -v
