Can't seem to get any text to display on my lcd. I get this error

Tried the same method but with python and it runs just fine, am i missing something here? Not very familiar with NodeJS

The Node.js lcd package uses Linux GPIO numbers rather than physical pin numbers. This means 37 should be 26, 35 should be 19, etc...

It shouldn't be necessary to use sudo when running Node.is.

I will try this out! Thanks. Regarding sudo i just thought it would be best to make sure it was not failing at that. Thanks again :)

It worked great, using it to display telemetry data (rpm, gear, speed etc) from forza motorsport 7 over UDP.
