        I am not having much luck with this. Been searching and trying everything…

        i@raspberrypi:~ $ node -v
        v10.15.2
        pi@raspberrypi:~ $ npm -v
        bash: npm: command not found

          I’ve used this to update npm:

          npm install npm@latest -g

            @bminer1 yes, they split the npm install off from the node install… so you have to do two now

            sudo apt-get install npm
            then sudo npm i -g npm ( as it updated the usr/lib folder)

                  @bminer1 in the future if you use the installer, it will handle this

                    I went through all of the avenues and this was the only way it stuck.
                    I am creating a second MM Pi so ill try it again on this Pi.
