unable to install dependencies

[Slaton87]

Hi, I tried running this on my pi and at the end it is unable to install dependencies. Any help on fixing this would be greatly appreciated.

From terminal: Installing dependencies ... bash: line 412: npm: command not found Unable to install dependencies!

Thanks! I’ll redownload the program on the sd card and give it a shot. My 8yr old is wanting to try and learn about this stuff so that means I am too lol.
