Install npm without node


No, because npm is a program written in JavaScript, and without Node rather hard to run such programs on the server side (outside the browser).


Simple answer to your questions is No.

NPM is a NodeJS Package Manager . As its name would imply, you can use it to install node programs.

This is a wiki defination of npm

Npm is the default package manager for the JavaScript runtime environment Node.js.

So, you need to install Node.js in order to run NPM. Hope this helps. Thank you.


Two things:

  1. Do you need to install npm or just some package manager? If anything is fine you can try some other package manager like yarn (I haven't tried it personally).
  2. I believe Typescript is build on JavaScript, meaning you'll need Node.js to compile your tsc code. Unless! You want it compiled in the browser which is an ill-advised thing to do, but still possible.
