Description

There are instructions for installing Node.js on Ubuntu, but they should be added for Fedora as well.

On Fedora, it is simply
yum install nodejs npm
to install both Node.js and the Node Package Modules manager.

For RHEL and CentOS, users should first install the EPEL repository from https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL#How_can_I_use_these_extra_packages.3F and then the same commands above apply.

Research direction

Find the existing Ubuntu Node.js installation instructions in the project documentation and use them as the starting point. Add Fedora instructions using yum install nodejs npm, and note the EPEL prerequisite for RHEL and CentOS; done means all three distributions have clear installation steps.
