Also getting the same error - can get it to install all dependancies when using sudo but then vscode seems to have permission issues editing the files created

You need to create a new NodeJS project and add canvas-sketch to it. To do so, open up your terminal, and execute following commands:

mkdir your-dir
cd your-dir
npm init -y
npm install --save-dev canvas-sketch canvas-sketch-util

Now you can create a new sketch within that sub dir:

canvas-sketch index.js --new --open

And if you want to run it later:

canvas-sketch index.js --open

That should do the trick!
