Installing Node.js and EPEL

To install Node.js on our CentOS server, first run the following command (I adapted these instructions from the Phusion Passenger installation tutorial, which we continue with later):

sudo yum install -y epel-release yum-utils

Next, run the following command to install Node.js

sudo yum install -y --enablerepo=epel nodejs npm
