If you're installing code-server via `npm`, you'll need to install additional
dependencies required to build the native modules used by VS Code. This article
includes installing instructions based on your operating system.
## Node.js version
2021-03-09 18:20:14 +00:00
We use the same major version of Node.js shipped with VSCode's Electron,
which is currently `14.x`. VS Code also [lists Node.js
requirements](https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/wiki/How-to-Contribute#prerequisites).

Using other versions of Node.js [may lead to unexpected
behavior](https://github.com/cdr/code-server/issues/1633).

## Issues with Node.js after version upgrades
Occasionally, you may run into issues with Node.js.
If you install code-server using `yarn` or `npm`, and you upgrade your Node.js
version, you may need to reinstall code-server to recompile native modules.
Sometimes, you can get around this by navigating into code-server's `lib/vscode`
directory and running `npm rebuild` to recompile the modules.
A step-by-step example of how you might do this is:
1. Install code-server: `brew install code-server`
2. Navigate into the directory: `cd /usr/local/Cellar/code-server/<version>/libexec/lib/vscode/`
3. Recompile the native modules: `npm rebuild`
4. Restart code-server
