Some notes I’ve seen say to install the 32 bit version on a 64bit system. In some cases, because IIS Express only ships as 32bit. But if you’re not using IIS (Express), can you use 64bit?
I ended up using these notes and not integrating with IIS (yet?).
Since I’m working in Emacs, I’ve been updating notes @ EmacsWiki:NodeJs
I’ve installed node and js-comint, but tab-completion is not supported. Nor in swank-js, AFAIK (which I haven’t tried yet)
As of Dec 2017 I’ve started using JS Code? for Node development. I miss a lot of my Emacs customizations, but the other seamless integrations make up for it.
(on windows, at least) Just run the latest installer.
Can use Chocolatey: cinst nodejs.install to install node and npm, cup nodejs.install -y to upgrade both Node and npm
Do NOT run cinst nodejs - Chocolately’s nodejs is an alias for nodejs.commandline which simply installs Node.exe to the Chocolatey folder. Does not include NPM.
Once node and npm are installed, running npm i -g npm will update npm (or you can update Node and npm together; see aboe).
If you’re getting a Error: No compatible version found: [foo@’^n.n.n’] you may need to update to the latest version of node and npm (see above).

There are a few special REPL commands:
.break - While inputting a multi-line expression, sometimes you get lost or just don’t care about completing it. .break will start over.
.clear - Resets the context object to an empty object and clears any multi-line expression.
.exit - Close the I/O stream, which will cause the REPL to exit.
.help - A:Show this list of special commands.
