Install nodejs with npm support on WSL (Bash for windows)

install-node-npm-wsl.sh

#!/bin/bash

# have a look here: https://github.com/creationix/nvm
# will install it into ~/.nvm/
curl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/creationix/nvm/v0.33.11/install.sh | bash

# restart bash
# list available nodejs versions
nvm ls-remote

# take on of the latest once (does not need to fully match)
nvm install v10

# set default node to installed version
nvm alias default v10

# congrats - you got node and npm now
node -v
# v10.14.1
npm -v
# 6.4.1

# its also possible to install multible nodejs versions and switch between them using nvm
# but for now i am happy with this setup
