Install MongoDB prebuilt binaries via npm. Version 6.3.6 is the latest stable release. This package downloads the official MongoDB binaries (mongod, mongo, mongodump, etc.) for your operating system and makes them available as command-line tools or programmatically via JavaScript. It avoids compiling MongoDB from source, supporting Mac, Windows, Linux, and Solaris. Compared to similar tools like mongodb-download or mongodb-runner, mongodb-prebuilt provides a simpler all-in-one solution but may have slower update cadence. Ships TypeScript types.
