I get the same problem as the installation instructions only states v14.
Also, instead of the installation instructions, follow this link and run the script - I think that will install v16.
[https://github.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts](link url)

I got mine to work this afternoon with node.js v17, but developer said no-go v17 - so I do not know what to tell you. Mine works fine with v17 - well, most of the modules if I do not get a error:
at Object. (/home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/…
at Module._compile (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:1078:30)
at Object.Module._extensions…js
internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:1108:10) {
code: ‘MODULE_NOT_FOUND’,
requireStack: [
‘/home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-…/node_helper.js’,
‘/home/pi/MagicMirror/js/app.js’,
‘/home/pi/MagicMirror/js/electron.js’,
‘/home/pi/MagicMirror/node_modules/electron/dist/resources/default_app.asar/main.js’,
undefined

in some modules.
So there is obviously something going on with node.js.
