Description

Hello, I'm Oscar and I'm physical therapist. No code knowledge, no Ubuntu experience. My final aim is try to help you to improve the experience installing HSD in a Ubuntu 16.04, hosted in google Cloud. Until 1st May i will enjoy free trial Google Cloud. This is the time I have to be successfull in this awesome adventure (install HNS node). First of all I want to say thank you all of you for your work and all my words here go to be constructive criticism.
**First I have questions in my first steps:**

_1. Is necessary create a user o superuser to install requirements?
2. If answer is yes, how can i create user o superuser?
3. Have I logout and login to make effect the changes?_

**Suggestions**

_1. Link to basic command lines in Ubuntu.
2. Add command line to check version of requirements programs
3. Create a complete requirement list.
4. Direct link to Node.js and command line to check version.
5. If Node-GYP must be isntalled then add it in the requirement list and their requirement list too (with links)
6. If is it necessary a Docker Version add in the requirement list and link or command line to install.
7._

I offer myself to do the changes, add links, etc. But first I need yo know your opinion. Thnks

Research direction

Start by locating the HSD installation documentation and reviewing its prerequisites for Ubuntu 16.04, Node.js, node-gyp, Docker, and Google Cloud. Document the required user permissions, version checks, complete requirements, and installation links so a new user can follow the setup without unanswered prerequisite questions.
