node.js and npm menu option at settings

Hi Sihaab, could you please check whether the JavaScript Runtime settings are available under File | Settings | Languages & Frameworks | JavaScript Runtime?

Thank you for getting back to me, please find the attached screenshot. 

 

Here is my issue for the IDE that I cannot setup interpreter for node.js

 

Hello!

In your screenshot of the settings I see that Node.js and npm are correctly set in `Settings | Languages & Frameworks | JavaScript Runtime`.

The popup from your last screenshot is related only to the Python interpreter and has nothing to do with Node.js.

Which issues exactly do you encounter with Node.js/TypeScript?

This REACT and Type Script project, are you suggesting I should not or need not use any interpreter for React JSX projects ?

Node.js is already configured in your settings. You don't need a Python interpreter in such a project.

Do I need to set node.js as my interpreter at the IDE , please check my screenshot. It says < no interpreter >

Node.js is already set, as you screenshot of JavaScript Runtime settings shows.

The popup in your screenshot is about Python interpreter. You don't need it in a React project and can ignore this widget.

Is there something that doesn't work in your project?

Everythiong works fine, just curious why do I need interpreter there and should I set or not. Its kind of misleading for the react project. I think we are good now. Thanks for the help. 

Sihaab Thank you for the clarification!

The “<No interpreter>” indicator you’re seeing refers specifically to the Python interpreter. Since PyCharm is primarily a Python IDE, that widget is always available - even in projects that don’t use Python. In a React/TypeScript project, it can simply be ignored.

If everything in your project is working as expected, then your setup is correct and no additional interpreter configuration is required.
