alternatives for node-canvas
I had used canvas long time ago. Now when i tried to use it again, i couldn't even install it.
I looked the readme on the npmjs page, and it stated that i have to install bunch of packages.
I'm too lazy for that. So I'm looking for an alternatives that works similar to canvas, especially if that tool has something like converting it to data url.
[I was about to use it in my discord bot btw]
Thanks.

what command are you running?
npm i canvas
hmm, no idea then
looks like there's no version of this precompiled for your particular node and windows versions
🤔
i dont understand, my nodejs version is not up to date or the canvas package isn't upto date?
