I am using the bash console in windows 10. I am using node.js and I want to install nodemon, but I get this:

sudo: npm: command not found

and I'm supposed to have npm

Providing information about how you installed npm could be useful. Assuming you used windows and not bash to install npm, that is probably why you might be having an issue.

Try installing node through bash console.

Install git first

apt-get install git

Get the latest version of node

curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_12.x | sudo -E bash -

Install node

sudo apt-get install -y nodejs

if it still doesn't work SOMETIMES node will get installed as nodeJS so you might have to create a hard link

ln -s `which nodejs` /usr/bin/node
