I noticed this sentence. "Verify that you are running at least node
6.9.x and npm 3.x.x by running node -v and npm -v in a terminal/console window. Older versions produce errors, but newer versions are fine." .checked with my homestead.
node -v
v5.10.0
npm -v
3.10.10
npm is OK, but node is older versions. It could produce errors.
So, my question is, "how to update node in my homestead VM?"
searched a lot of solution online, include StackOverflow but didn't work. After a few hours, node version is still v5.10.0. So, I looked at the nodejs.org website.
https://nodejs.org/en/download/package-manager/#debian-and-ubuntu-based-linux-distributions
And I think why not follow the nodejs.org website?
chose Debian-and-ubuntu-based-Linux-distributions because homestead os is ubuntu.
Type
curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_6.x | sudo -E bash -
I think it means download node6.x version ?
Then type
sudo apt-get install -y nodejs
I think it means install nodejs.
After a few seconds. check
node -v
It gave me this
v6.11.3
Means updated success!!!!
