5. Upload to Firebase Hosting

Install the firebase-tools CLI

Skip this step if you already have firebase tools installed. If you do not have this, you must install that first.

npm download link: https://nodejs.org/ (Download and install it)

If you are not sure whether npm is installed on your machine, run $ npm -v , and see if it lists a version number. If it does, then you already have npm. If it says “command not found”, you need to install it.

Once npm is installed, run the following command:

npm install -g firebase-tools

firebase-tools is now installed!
