The message you're seeing indicates that your current version of Node.js is too old to support the Angular CLI. To resolve this issue, you need to update Node.js to at least version 18.13. Here's how you can update Node.js based on your operating system:

1. Check your current Node.js version:

You can confirm your Node.js version by running:

bash
node -v

2. Update Node.js:

For Windows/macOS (via Node.js website):

• Visit the official Node.js website at https://nodejs.org.
• Download the latest LTS (Long-Term Support) version or any version above v18.13.
• Run the installer and follow the installation instructions.

For macOS/Linux (via Node Version Manager - NVM):

If you use nvm (Node Version Manager), you can easily switch between Node.js versions. Here's how to update Node.js using nvm:

1. Install nvm (if not already installed): If you don't have nvm, you can install it by running this command in your terminal:

   bash
   curl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.39.3/install.sh | bash
   

   Then restart your terminal or run:

   bash
   source ~/.bashrc
   

2. Install the latest stable version of Node.js:

   bash
   nvm install --lts
   

3. Switch to the latest installed version:

   bash
   nvm use --lts
   

4. Verify the Node.js version:

   bash
   node -v
   

For Linux (via package manager):

• Ubuntu/Debian:

  bash
  sudo apt update
  sudo apt install -y nodejs
  

• CentOS/Fedora:

  bash
  sudo yum install -y nodejs
  

3. Verify Installation:

After updating, verify your new Node.js version:

bash
node -v

Ensure it's at least v18.13.0 or higher, which the Angular CLI requires.

Once done, try running your Angular commands again, and it should work without issues!
