Prerequisites

Before diving into development with Dashcode, ensure your development setup is equipped with Node.js and either npm or Yarn.

1. Node.js (>= 20.0.0)

To install Node.js, go to Node.js (opens in a new tab) and install the latest version.

2. npm (>= 5.5.1) or Yarn (>=1.5.1)

For downloading and installing packages, a package manager is required. You have the option to use npm (opens in a new tab) or Yarn (opens in a new tab) as your package manager. Our preference leans towards Yarn over npm. To verify the installation of npm or Yarn on your system, execute npm -v or yarn -v in a terminal or console window.

//npm
npm -v
 
//yarn
yarn -v
