C++ Node.js Addons

This project uses C++ Node.js addons. When building on Node.js 20, you may encounter issues with node-gyp. It is recommended to use node-gyp version 10 or higher to avoid these issues.

If you're using nvm to manage Node.js versions, you can switch to Node.js 10 by running nvm use 10. If you don't have Node.js 10 installed, you can install it by running nvm install 10.

Please ensure that you have the necessary build tools installed on your system to compile C++ code. On Windows, you can install the necessary build tools by running npm install --global --production windows-build-tools. On Unix-based systems, you'll need to have gcc and make installed. You can install these by using your system's package manager.
