Node 20.x.x isn't compatible with Wasp? Or am I doing something wrong?

I'm getting this error

❌ --- [Error] Node requirement not met: ------------------------------------------

Your Node version does not meet Wasp's requirements! You are running Node 20.9.0.
Wasp requires Node ^18.12.0 to be installed and in PATH. Check Wasp documentation for more details: https://wasp-lang.dev/docs/quick-start#requirements.

But ^18.12.0 doesn't mean 18 or greater?

For now Wasp is supporting only LTS Node versions! We will change that soon as we find it a bit too strict but until then you can use NVM

Node 20 is already a LTS version I think: https://nodejs.org/en/blog/release/v20.10.0

Node v20.10.0 (LTS) | Node.js

Node.js® is a JavaScript runtime built on Chrome's V8 JavaScript engine.

I'll use nvm anyway. Thanks!

We'll update the Node.js 20 support in the coming weeks 🙂 thank you for understanding

matijash•12mo ago

ah sorry, my bad, didn't realize 20 is also LTS! Thanks for correcting me 🙂

So you got this correct @igolaizola : that said, we are releasing a new version of Wasp in ~ 2 weeks that will drop this restriction and you will be able to use any new version of Node!
