7 years ago Found out that the modules were being installed in the wrong directory... Ran the first command to figure out what directory it was and set it with the second. Works like a charm now. npm config get prefix npm config set prefix /usr/local
I have already completed the workshop but none of the others work either so I would like to figure out what is the cause which should allow me to work on the other workshops.
