I am to install @angular/cli on my Ubuntu 16.04 computer. My node version is v7.10.0 and npm is 5.0.0
I keep getting this error:
gyp ERR! configure error
gyp ERR! stack Error: EACCES: permission denied, mkdir '/usr/local/lib/node_modules/@angular/cli/node_modules/node-sass/build'

Build failed with error code: 1

npm WARN optional SKIPPING OPTIONAL DEPENDENCY: [email protected] postinstall: `node scripts/build.js`
npm WARN optional SKIPPING OPTIONAL DEPENDENCY: Exit status 1
I also tried the following commands:
npm cache clean --force
sudo npm install -g @angular/cli
Should I manually try and change the permission or ownership using chmod or chown?
