Installing Yeoman and Gulp using NPM in Ubuntu

Hi,

In this post I am going to talk about installing Yeoman and Gulp in Ubuntu, the version of Ubuntu I was using was 16.04, the procedure followed here for the installation of Yeoman and Gulp should be pretty much the same for the feature versions and to some extent recent past versions of Ubuntu

Since Yeoman and Gulp is depending on NodeJs Package Manager for their installation, first let us have NodeJs Package Manager(NPM) installed.

To Install NodeJs Package Manager or NPM, please refer to an other post of mine whose link is given below...

Installation of Node Package Manager or NPM

The following sections assumes you have NodeJs and NPM in place to proceed...

Installation of Yeoman

Open up a terminal and execute the following command at the prompt

> npm install -g yo

When everything goes fine, you should see something as shown in the image below...

This concludes the installation of Yeoman.

Installation of Gulp

Installation of gulp is very straight forward, just execute the commands given below and wait till it completes... you can verify the result of the command with the image given at the tail of each one of them.

> npm install --global gulp-cli

> gulp --version

With this we have concluded the installation of Yoeman and Gulp.

Hope you had wonderful time.

Thanks.
