There are several installation scripts and advices on how to install these components necessary for the new odoo themes. For the non-technical specialists, it is very difficult to find out, what works.
Odoo is the world's easiest all-in-one management software.
It includes hundreds of business apps:
- CRM
- e-Commerce
- Accounting
- Inventory
- PoS
- Project management
- MRP

After fiddling around and not exactly knowing why some ways worked and others not, I believe the following instructions are quite fool-proof. I have successfully tested it on an Amazon EC2 Ubuntu instance as non-Root user.
The NodeJS and NPM packages in the Ubuntu 14.04 repository can not be used because they are outdated.
Follow the instructions from the NodeJS Website:
curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_0.10 | sudo bash -
sudo apt-get install -y nodejs
sudo npm install -g npm (to update npm)
Then install Less and accessories:
sudo npm install -g less less-plugin-clean-css
Hi Ermin,It works wonderfully,thanks for such a great answer.
Ubuntu 16.04:
curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_4.x | sudo bash -
then everything indicated by Erwin Travisan (Thanks!)
There are various way to do that.
Please refer following link

Ubuntu 14.04 contains a version of Node.js in its default repositories that can be used to easily provide a consistent experience across multiple servers. The version in the repositories is 0.10.25. This will not be the latest version, but it should be quite stable.
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install nodejs
sudo apt-get install npm
you can test node by typing "node " on terminal
1. node
2. node --version
The versions from the ubuntu repository seemed not to work for me with the new odoo website themes. The way I have proposed works for sure.
Just run this " npm install less@1.5 -g " on your terminal all your problem of less css will be solved
Should Odoo community version's navbar look like v8's (black top bar and bluish sidebar)? Or something is wrong with my installation? I used the Enterprise version and the interface looked like the one advertised by Odoo (with purple top bar). But when I use the community version, it looked different. Since I was able to launch v9 perfectly, I believe dependencies and nodejs were correctly installed, am I right?
@james_p: please do not hijack a thread with a different question. Besides that, Odoo 9.0 Enterprise has a new user responsive user interface, which is different from the old one in the community edition.
