getting user input in node js

const readline = require('readline').createInterface({
  input: process.stdin,
  output: process.stdout
});

readline.question('Who are you?', name => {
  console.log(`Hey there ${name}!`);
  readline.close();
});

//Make sure you have Node and NPM installed
//Run "npm install prompt-sync" in the terminal
const prompt = require('prompt-sync')();

const name = prompt('What is your name?');
console.log(`Hey there ${name}`);

--------------- easiest method I found---------------------------
  
Run npm install prompt-sync in the terminal
const prompt = require('prompt-sync')();

var name = prompt('what is your name?');

console.log(name);
