That is great. I am to much of a software developer to understand server instillation of software. A world I need to learn. Step A here is to learn how to install node.js

I have a dedicated server with hostgator. So it is cpanel based. So I need to establish a shell terminal connection to the cpanel an run these commands. THanks for the help.

I am missing a key foundation in my knowledge. I uploaded the NodeBB-master directory to my servers. Hoping to try this out to see how I can make it work but I hit the installing barrier. I must be the only one without the knowledge in the next step. I see the Readme file that list how to install it but I have no idea how to do and even where to go to do:

 # apt-get install git nodejs redis-server npm build-essential imagemagick

Can someone point me in the right direction. I am sure it is obvious and me asking is silly. Thanks.
