Cannot find module 'npmlog'

Cannot seem to get past this hiccup. Any ideas?

node -v v8.1.3 npm -v 5.0.3

Mh... i seems to be an npm-cli error (at /Users/brandon/node_modules/npm/bin/npm-cli.js:18:11) have you tried to upgrade npm or re-install node?

npmlog is "The logger that npm uses"

[lusentis]

Just tried to deploy the example 0 from dawson-examples with node 8.1.3 / npm 5.0.3 (on Ubuntu) and it worked, so that should definitively be an npm internal error which will be resolved by reinstalling that node version or upgrading npm.

[brandoncorbin]

Ugh, sorry for bothering you with this. I should have paid closer attention. I'm in NPM update hell right now - and a fresh brew install doesn't help.

This is definitely not a Dawson problem.

[lusentis]

don't worry, this might be helpful to others in the future, too. If you're on a Mac, you can uninstall brewed node and use nvm instead, that should help.

[brandoncorbin]

Removing all things NPM, and going with nvm instead - made all my problems go away. Thanks for all of the amazing work!
