errors during installation

Not getting very far with installing saxi. I figured out that it needs python to be present, but it's failing at a weird error. Enclosing a screen capture

@padcrafting Not sure if you ever got past this, but in case you haven't, the core-js deprecation is just a warning and won't prevent installation. The error appears to be when building the serialport extension. At a quick guess, you might need to install/upgrade gcc or other development/build dependencies.

I ran into this problem in 2023, and believe it was actually caused by an old version of node-gyp in package-lock.json.

If you run npm update node-gyp first the install should work
