npm install jquery fails

Tried reading this stacktrace thoroughly but it didn't make me any smarter. Ideas?

sudo npm install jquery

To include jQuery in Node, first install with npm.

npm install jquery

For jQuery to work in Node, a window with a document is required. Since no such window exists natively in Node, one can be mocked by tools such as jsdom. This can be useful for testing purposes.

require("jsdom").env("", function(err, window) {
    if (err) {
        console.error(err);
        return;
    }

    var $ = require("jquery")(window);
});

On ubuntu, I added 'sudo': 

sudo npm install jquery

... that solved it for me.

It seems like the camel case jQuery is depreciated now

npm WARN deprecated [email protected]: This is deprecated. Please use 'jquery' (all lowercase).

You got to use 

npm install jquery

I had the same problem. Looks like we have to use

npm install jQuery

instead of

npm install jquery

Thanks to coolaj86.
