Answer 1

For me it was installing nodejs-legacy. Type node -v and if that returns an error:

apt install nodejs-legacy

Should do the trick. Happy coding!

Answer 2

I found a solution, I think the issue was regarding permissions of all files in node_modules directory. So I just ran

sudo chmod -R a+rwx ./node_modules
