You need to install the *Less CSS* compiler to run this module * on Linux, use your distribution's package manager to install nodejs and npm. * In debian wheezy and Ubuntu 13.10 and before you need to install nodejs manually: .. code-block:: console $ wget -qO- https://deb.nodesource.com/setup | bash - $ apt-get install -y nodejs * In later debian (>jessie) and ubuntu (>14.04) you may need to add a symlink as npm packages call ``node`` but debian calls the binary ``nodejs`` .. code-block:: console $ apt-get install -y npm $ sudo ln -s /usr/bin/nodejs /usr/bin/node * Once npm is installed, use it to install less and less-plugin-clean-css: .. code-block:: console $ sudo npm install -g less less-plugin-clean-css * on OS X, install nodejs via your preferred package manager (`homebrew `_, `macports `_) then install less and less-plugin-clean-css: .. code-block:: console $ sudo npm install -g less less-plugin-clean-css * on Windows, `install nodejs `_, reboot (to update the `PATH`) and install less and less-plugin-clean-css: .. code-block:: ps1 C:\> npm install -g less less-plugin-clean-css
