To downgrade your npm version, you need to use the following command on your terminal:

shell
Copy code
npm install -g npm@<desired-version>

Replace <desired-version> with the version you want to install down to. For example, if you want to downgrade to version 6.14.10, your terminal command would be:

shell
Copy code
npm install -g npm@6.14.10

This will install the specified version of npm globally on your machine.

👩‍💻 how to downgrade node version

To downgrade your Node.js version, you need to use a version manager tool such as nvm. Here are the steps:

  1. First, check which Node.js version you currently have installed on your machine by running the following command on your terminal:
shell
Copy code
node -v
  1. After that, use nvm to install the desired Node.js version by using the following command:
shell
Copy code
nvm install <desired-version>

Replace <desired-version> with the version you want to install down to. For example, if you want to downgrade to version 12.22.3, the command would be:

shell
Copy code
nvm install 12.22.3
  1. Once the installation is completed, you can switch to that version by running:
shell
Copy code
nvm use <desired-version>

Replace <desired-version> with the Node.js version you just installed. For example:

shell
Copy code
nvm use 12.22.3

And that's it, you have now downgraded your Node.js version using nvm.

👩‍💻 where can i use this command, command line or vs code

You can use both the command line and VS Code to run this command, as long as you have installed the necessary tools.

For example, to run this command on Windows, you can open the Command Prompt or PowerShell on your computer and type in the command. On a Mac or Linux, you can use the Terminal application.

Alternatively, you can use the integrated terminal in VS Code by opening the terminal panel in VS Code and typing in the command. To do this, you can go to View -> Terminal or use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl + Shift + ~ to open the terminal panel.

Both options will work, so it's up to your personal preference and the context of your work.

👩‍💻 okay thank you

Yes, you need to install NVM (Node Version Manager) before you can use the nvm command on your terminal or command prompt.

Here are the general steps to install NVM:

  1. Open your terminal or command prompt and run the following command to download the installation script:
shell
Copy code
curl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.38.0/install.sh | bash

Note: If you don't have curl installed on your machine, you can install it with your system's package manager.

  1. After the download is completed, the installation script will run and install NVM in the default location (~/.nvm).

  2. Close and reopen your terminal or command prompt to enable NVM.

  3. Verify that NVM is installed by running the following command:

shell
Copy code
nvm --version

If NVM is installed correctly, you should see the version number displayed in your terminal.

Once NVM is installed, you can use the nvm install command to install the desired version of Node.js on your machine. For example:

shell
Copy code
nvm install 12.22.3

I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any further questions.

AI stands for Artificial Intelligence. AI bots are able to learn from conversations with users and expand their knowledge this way.

SheCodes Athena will help you with technical questions about your code using artificial intelligence to find the answer. Imagine a super powerful human who has memorized everything on the internet and can access that knowledge in a matter of seconds. 🤯

SheCodes Athena can answer most coding-related questions, even complicated ones! It can even find bugs in your code and tell you how to fix them in just a few seconds. Impressive, right?

Just remember we're still in testing mode so the AI may return strange or incorrect replies. Feel free to message us if this happens!

SheCodes Athena can only reply to coding-related technical questions. The same type of questions you would ask in the channels on Slack.

For questions that are not coding-related, write us here 😃

You should treat Athena like a SheCodes team member, so always be polite! 😊 Ask your questions as detailed as possible, just like you would do on Slack.

Here are some examples:

- Prettier isn't working on my VS Code. How do I fix this?

- How do I make bullet points with different colors using the list element?

- My code in Codesandbox is having some issues. Can you please tell me what the issue is? [Include the link to your Codesandbox]

For now, SheCodes Athena is limited to 5 questions per day for each student.

In that case, you can either ask SheCodes Athena a follow-up question, or you can post on the designated weekly channel on Slack!

Our technical assistants are still available on Slack and are always happy to help! 😍💪

Remember, questions are limited to 1000 characters.

- If you're working with an HTML file: Post a snippet of your code related to the issue you're having (just copy the code and paste it into the question box).

- If you're working with Codesandbox: Good news, you can just post the link to your Codesandbox and the AI Assistant will be able to view your code.

- If you have a longer question that would require an entire HTML file or more than 1000 characters, post it in the designated weekly channels on Slack! 😃

Athena was the Greek goddess of wisdom, among other elements. She received her name from the city of Athens, which she is known for protecting.

Much like the goddess Athena, SheCodes Athena is also incredibly wise and can solve complicated coding puzzles in a matter of seconds! 😍

Not likely. AI can automate tasks and make developers' jobs more efficient but it can't fully replace the human ability to deal with complex software. And AI will still require human developers to supervise and improve it further.

So developers may see their tasks change but they won't be replaced by AI. 👩‍💻🤝💻
