… as it says on the page if you scroll down a bit: https://nodejs.org/en/download/package-manager/#alternatives There are the official Node.js packages (provided by NodeSource in this case) and the distro's packages. We list them in this order, as the distro sometimes may be behind the official release.

Thanks Frederic. I'm a newbie so I wanted to get going quickly. I think maybe a hint saying that the Fedora distro may be behind and your alternative packages are recommended might help. Also a link to the alternatives might be useful? Also someone seeing this for the first time will see yum being used and like me think this is out of date? I don't find this layout user friendly, but if you think it works, not a problem. Regards Kiren

@kirenpillay Thanks for your feedback. We're already working on a website relaunch, where also the whole "install via package manager" section will be overhauled.
