All of the things in this list are unconfirmed. I do not know if those are all the packages you need on other systems and I also do not know if they all are needed. I needed to get those on my Lubuntu OS.

Run sudo npm i -g inschpektor --unsafe-perm
--unsafe-perm is needed on linux. It was not needed on my MacOS and I'm not sure about windows. The reason are the npm submodules that need to run with sudo permissions too (the bcrypt dependency leads to this necessity).
