Install Required Software

Before you can set up your development environment, you must install certain third-party software tools.

In addition to software supplied by Oracle, a storefront development environment requires the following:

• Node.js – Install the most recent LTS (long-term support) version of Node.js 16.x on your system. (Do not install a different major version number.) Node.js 16.x is available at:

  https://nodejs.org/dist/latest-v16.x

  The Node.js installation also includes npm.

• Yarn – Install the latest stable version of Yarn 1.x on your system. (Do not install Yarn 2.x). Yarn 1.x is available at:

  https://legacy.yarnpkg.com/docs/install

After you install the software, perform the setup tasks in the sequence in which the topics are covered in this chapter.
