I just tried: jupyter labextension install @techrah/text-shortcuts and got the following error:

An error occured.
ValueError: Please install nodejs 5+ and npm before continuing installation. nodejs may be installed using conda or directly from the nodejs website.
See the log file for details:  /var/folders/67/sdt7v3y13m73fmpzd48c4wd40000gp/T/jupyterlab-debug-vyjvdca4.log

My system os OSX 0.14.6, and I don't have those dependencies installed. I do however have Jupyter Lab installed.

Suggest that you list dependencies, or if these are really the dependencies, I would move this further up the page (before? the installation instructions) to make this more obvious.

Added the dependencies to the README. These are required in general to install Jupyter Lab extensions according to the docs, but worth listing them. Thanks.
