title: Installing Angular on Mac OS 10.13
body: <p>I'm trying to follow the <a href="https://angular.io/guide/quickstart" rel="nofollow noreferrer">quickstart</a> on running Angular locally (on MacOS 10.13.6). With the first command, I already get some errors:</p>
  
  <pre><code>npm install -g @angular/cli
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Output:</p>

  <p>My node version is LTS (10.15.3). Any idea what's causing this and how to get angular to run on Mac?</p>
