Hi everyone ☺️

I'm new to App development world and need a kick start into installing Quasar, since i'm having trouble installing in onto my mac. I have installed node.js 16.15.01 LTS. When I tried installing Quasar afterwards, I've only received errors. What am I doing wrong?

You don't need the $ character. Just type npm i -g @quasar/cli.

You gotta have admin privilegies to install global packages.
Try sudo npm i -g @quasar/cli
