      Install recent nodejs.
      I don’t know how you have installed the current version of nodejs. So I cannot give you an exact advice.
      Generally I prefer to manage node version with nvm

        Hey @MMRIZE 👋

        I used the following command:

        curl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.39.7/install.sh | bash
        

        which I found here

        this is “nvm” isn’t it?

          @MMRIZE 1st line of 1st included message image shows his nvm command

          says using 18.18.0

          the npm ci says using 18.17.1

          try npm i

          I use n, which is a nodejs version of nvm

          sudo mpn install n

          n version
          n list
          n --help

                @Ix version is the one you want to use

                n 18

                n 18.18

                need sudo to change, as it write to /usr/local/bin which is protected
                (as as nvm does)

                see
                n --help

                  I already tried and changed my used version to v18.18 via nvm (what obviously didn’t work)

                  Now I installed “n” and tried again with your method.
                  Here are the results:

                  mirror@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror/modules $ sudo n 18.18
                    installing : node-v18.18.2
                         mkdir : /usr/local/n/versions/node/18.18.2
                         fetch : https://nodejs.org/dist/v18.18.2/node-v18.18.2-linux-arm64.tar.xz
                       copying : node/18.18.2
                  /usr/bin/n: Zeile 746: /usr/local/bin/node: Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden
                     installed :  (with npm 9.8.1)
                  

                  There is an error: “Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden” which translates into “File or directory not found” (Sry for my German OS 😅)

                  so there is another issue

                      yes I think:

                      mirror@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror/modules $ cd /usr/local/bin
                      mirror@raspberrypi:/usr/local/bin $ ls
                      corepack  node  npm  npx
                      

                      node is colored green in this ls

                          yeah, but see the error message I posted above: it seems to get the directory wrong as well. sry for me being a newbie in this case

                              well that’s a completely different path… so what should I do now?

                                npm i @stylistic/eslint-plugin@1.8.1
