Current Behavior

I'm following the booster framework getting started tutorial and running on a barebones newly deployed system. Everything is working as expected, except when I get to part 6.2 and run the command: boost deploy -e production which returns the following error:

also happened to ttsc command:

[2023-03-15T14:23:18.964Z] sh: 1: ttsc: not found

Expected behavior

Booster should run the deployment and build the required resources in AWS.

Possible Solution

The issue seems to be with not having rimraf or ttsc installed in the system. Not that familiar with node, but shouldn't they run from local binaries in node_modules/.bin? When I installed them globally usin npm i -g, the command started working.

Environment

• Booster version: @boostercloud/cli/1.7.0 wsl-x64 node-v14.21.3
• Node/npm version: Node 14/npm 7
• OS: Windows 11 (running in WSL 2 Ubuntu-22.04)

Hi. Would love to fix this. Can I get it assigned to me?
