What node version do you have installed?

node --version

[msisco]

I'm getting this also, my node version is 4.2.6

[DeviaVir]

@msisco the latest LTS is 6.x and latest is 8.x, could you install a newer version of nodejs and try again?

Awesome! Fixed after installing 8.x

[crubb]

Got the same error with nodejs 4, should we implement a version check?

[DeviaVir]

@crubb I think that would be useful, opened: #259
