npm throws EACCES error on installation of Angular CLI

Question

I am unable to install Angular Cli globally through npm. I keep getting this error when I run npm install -g @angular/cli on macOS:

npm ERR! nod         


        

Answer 1

This was a great link for me.

https://flaviocopes.com/npm-fix-missing-write-access-error/

once I did this command

sudo chown -R $USER /usr/local/lib/node_modules

in my terminal, the angular CLI install worked perfectly!
