ng: command not found while creating new project using angular-cli

Question

Installed angular-cli globally using (npm install -g angular-cli) but when I\'m trying to create project using ng new my-project it is throwing err

Answer 1

In my case, I was simply running the wrong node version.

I had just previously installed a new node version to play around with Angular (2). At work we use 6.x so that is my default in nvm. After restarting the laptop ng stopped working simply because I was running node 6.x again. So for me it was simply a matter of using the version with which I was installing the Angular CLI:

nvm use node // with the node alias pointing to the right version

or

nvm use v8.11.3 // if you happen to know the version

Check your installed versions and aliases with

nvm list
