Is nodejs required for angular 2 or angular?


Asked by Rhett York on Nov 29, 2021 FAQ



Yes. Node.js required for Angular 2 or Angular apps. We need to install Node.js to develop Angular Apps. If you are familiar with Angular JS 1.x. All we need to do is to add Angular Js file in script tag.But this not the case for Angular. "Angular" is entirely new framework and it is (Angular or Angular 2) written in Typescript.
Subsequently,
You do not need to use Node anywhere in production to use any front-end JavaScript framework, whether it is jQuery, AngularJS, ReactJS, Angular2, etc. Angular2 can be used in isolation but to get and feel better development environment, angular2 should be used with nodejs and npm.
Likewise, Prerequisites Before you begin, make sure your development environment includes Node.js® and an npm package manager. Node.js Angular requires Node.js version 8.x or 10.x. To check your version, run node -v in a terminal/console window. To get Node.js, go to nodejs.org. node.jsangular Share Improve this question Follow
Also,
npm is a package manager that lets you install packages required for angular projects. The thing you are getting confused is because in order to install npm we have to install node.js as it comes bundled with node. But other than this dependency, you will never have to use node.
Accordingly,
As per the compatibility matrix, Angular started supporting Node.js 14.x in Angular 12.0 and removed support for Node.js 10.x but continues to support Node.js 12.x. Angular doesn't officially support Node.js 16.x.
