Using node on Debian-based distros

May 26, 2017
This is not the nodejs you're looking for.

Old news for most of you, but since I got bitten by this again, I figured I’d share.

On Debian-based Linux distributions, the NodeJS executable gets installed as nodejs, not node. As it turns out, this is an easy problem to fix.

Happy Friday!
