NPM install code 1 error esbuild

[ktsandven]

I am receiving this error when running 'npm install' after npm create vite@latest

I've run into this problem with versions 10, 14, 16, and 18 of node

Duplicate of #2183. You are running an unsupported version of macOS that's too old to run esbuild. You can see that thread for possible workarounds.

Closing as this is not something that esbuild can fix.
