Get the dev tools you need

Section titled Get the dev tools you need

Terminal

Section titled Terminal

You will use a command line (terminal) to create your Astro project and to run key commands to build, develop, and test your site.

You can access the command line through a local terminal program for your operating system. Common applications include Terminal (MacOS/Linux), Command Prompt (Windows), and Termux (Android). One of these will probably already be on your machine.

Node.js

Section titled Node.js

For Astro to run on your system, you will also need to have Node.js installed, version v18.14.1 or later.

To check to see whether you already have a compatible version installed, run the following command in your terminal:

Terminal window
node -v


// Example output
v18.14.1

If the command returns a version number higher than v18.14.1, you’re good to go!

If the command returns an error message like Command 'node' not found, or a version number lower than v18.14.1, then you need to install a compatible Node.js version.
