Cannot run npm install about js-a11y-workshop HOT 5 OPEN

@AlinCiocan Try an earlier version of node. I've seen these issues, and switching to node 14 has fixed everything for me.

Sharp strikes again! Thanks for providing the stack trace. I searched and found a thread that looks very similar: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/57217251/getting-gyp-err-stack-syntaxerror-invalid-syntax-while-executing-npm-insta?noredirect=1&lq=1

The OP said they resolved it by installing a specific version of Python 2. 🤷🏻‍♀️ What version of Python is running on your machine?

Actually this error got resolved after installing Python 2 (exact version - 2.7.15) and pointing the environment variable PYTHON to C:\Python27\python.exe

You are right, I have Python version 3.9.4

I have installed also Python 2.7.15 and then run npm install --force, however I got the same error, because the npm still uses the Python3.

Environment variables:

I ran into npm install issues as well on an M1 Mac. Using Node 14 did the trick, but in order to install it, I had to run nvm install 14 with Rosetta.

Tried an earlier version of node, switching to node 14. Still no progress and cant use the course materials to progress.
