Just lately acquired an outdated MacBook Professional, new to MacOS.

I’ve downloaded & put in node 16.20.1
https://nodejs.org/en/obtain/releases

npm set up fails.
npm physician returns:

  • I’ve tried manually putting in & uninstalling node & npm
  • I’ve tried putting in node by way of nvm
  • I’m not in a position to set up node by way of homebrew attributable to gcc dependency
    (keen to strive if somebody can stroll me by way of putting in a package deal exterior homebrew then linking to homebrew)
  • I’ve tried setting <npm config set registry=http://registry.nmpjs.org/. and again

Is there an SSL certificates I want so as to add or modify someplace?
What else can I have a look at to troubleshoot this?
