# Pre-Requisites

**For Node.js:**

```bash
node --version
```

If Node.js is installed, this command will output the version of Node.js installed on your system. If Node.js is not installed, you will likely see an error message stating that the command `node` is not found.

**Also, Ensure that Node.js version 18 is installed on your system.**

```bash
nvm install v18
nvm use v18
```
