NPM Install error

Hi All,

I am trying to deploy my hello world app on Dfinity. While installing npm using ‘sudo apt install npm’ or ‘npm install’, it is not able to locate and install npm. I guess because of this, when I try to deploy, it shows: 'Connection refused (os error 11). Can anybody please help?

Thanks,
Pushpraj

Follow this to install npm on your system first

After you installed npm, inside your project directory run npm install.

Another thing you need to do is running dfx start fron inside your project directory in another terminal before you’re to able to successfully run dfx deploy

I would recommend nvm for managing node installations
