In this tutorial, we will show you how to install Angular on CentOS 8. For those of you who didn’t know, Angular is a JavaScript open-source, popular, and highly extensible front-end application development framework, used for building mobile and web applications using TypeScript/JavaScript and other common languages. Angular is a complete rewrite from the same team that built AngularJS.

This article assumes you have at least basic knowledge of Linux, know how to use the shell, and most importantly, you host your site on your own VPS. The installation is quite simple and assumes you are running in the root account, if not you may need to add ‘sudo‘ to the commands to get root privileges. I will show you the step-by-step installation of Angular on CentOS 8 Linux.

Prerequisites

• A server running one of the following operating systems: CentOS 8.
• It’s recommended that you use a fresh OS install to prevent any potential issues.
• SSH access to the server (or just open Terminal if you’re on a desktop).
• A non-root sudo user or access to the root user. We recommend acting as a non-root sudo user, however, as you can harm your system if you’re not careful when acting as the root.

Install Angular on CentOS 8

Step 1. First, let’s start by ensuring your system is up-to-date.

sudo dnf clean all
sudo dnf update

Step 2. Installing Node Js.

Angular requires Node.js version 10.9.0 or later, Run the following command to install Node.js:

sudo dnf module install nodejs

If you are a developer, you can use the development profile to install the libraries that enable you to build dynamically loadable modules:

sudo dnf module install nodejs/development

Verify your version of Node.js installed version:

$ node -v
v10.16.3

Step 3. Installing Install Angular on CentOS 8.

Once you have Node.js installed, you can install Angular CLI using the npm package manager:

sudo npm install -g @angular/cli@9

You can use the command to check the version of Angular installed:

ng --version

Congratulations! You have successfully installed Angular. Thanks for using this tutorial for installing Angular on CentOS 8 systems. For additional help or useful information, we recommend you check the official Angular website.
