The following article will guide you through the steps of installing NodeJS, Bower and Gulp on a CentOS 7 VPS.
What is NodeJS?
It is a platform built on Chrome’s JavaScript runtime (V8) for easily building fast, scalable network applications. NodeJS uses an event-driven, non-blocking I/O model that makes it lightweight and efficient, perfect for data-intensive real-time applications that run across distributed devices.
What is Bower?
Bower is a package manager for managing web frameworks, libraries, utilities, assets etc. It is a must-have tool for any web-developer out there.
What is Gulp?
Gulp is a streaming build system. It is very fast, simple and efficient. It utilizes the power of node’s streams, so you get fast builds that don’t write intermediary files to disk, especially when developing on one of our blazing fast SSD VPS hosting plans.
