I’m getting the following alerts when reloading my Glitch app. Can someone advise as to what the deal is with these? I’m not familiar with some of them. Thanks!

node v14.17.4, npm 6.14.14
Installing…

Ignore them

Why should he ignore them?

npm will always throw some warnings, its normal, and those dependencies are optional.

Either way, I am very curious, @delgesu1745, are you manually installing modules via npm in this console? If so, please do not do this! Use the built in package manager in glitch, there should be a button on the top left when you open a package.json file, use that to add packages!

I don’t believe he was concerned with the skipping of optional dependency and mostly possibly wanted to fix the 2 high severity vulnerabilities.

I will suggest that he runs npm audit fix and they will likely disappear.
