Cannot install - Permission & Depreciation warning (unsolved)

[Pi-Kay]

Hi,

I have trouble with the installation on my Mac. I appreciate any help with this.

I get a permission error. If I repeat the installation command with sudo, I get warnings "WARN deprecated". The advice on the links in the text didn't help so far.

Did anyone have the same problem?

Please, upgrade your dependencies to the actual version of core-js.
