### Node.js

Appium is written in JavaScript, and run with the [Node.js](https://nodejs.org/) engine. Currently
version 6+ is supported. While Node.js can be installed globally on the system,
a version manager is _highly_ recommended.
* NVM - [https://github.com/creationix/nvm](https://github.com/creationix/nvm)
* N - [https://github.com/tj/n](https://github.com/tj/n)

Your Node.js installation will include the [NPM](https://www.npmjs.com/) package manager, which Appium
will need in order to manage dependencies. Appiums supports NPM version 3+.
