what is your operating system? Mac has Git command-line installed for you. Check out this page on how to install Git on your operating system. https://www.atlassian.com/git/tutorials/install-git. If you already have the Git command but you want to install a third-party library like React, then you need npm installed on your computer. Check out this blog post by Treehouse on how to install npm and node.js https://blog.teamtreehouse.com/install-node-js-npm-mac
