## Install
You need to install the latest Node.JS first, please check [nodejs.org](http://nodejs.org) or do the following:
```bash
# Ubuntu
sudo apt-get install npm
# Mac
brew install node
# Both
npm install -g n
n stable
```
To use `bionode-ncbi` as a command line tool, you can install it globally with `-g`.
```bash
npm install bionode-ncbi -g
```
Or, if you want to use it as a JavaScript library, you need to install it in your local project folder inside the `node_modules` directory by doing the same command **without** `-g`.
```bash
npm i bionode-ncbi # 'i' can be used as shortcut to 'install'
```
