Does not build on macOS M1/arm and many dependency issues while installing

[Simon-Laux]

Branch develop : 8aa9e0c

node-sass -> node-gyp python error because my system python is too new

The error is sth about opening a file with the wrong flags (some flag was removed by newer python)

I recommend upgrading/changing dependencies to get rid of node-sass, as it is deprecated, so switch to dart sass (npm:sass) instead.

multiple dependency resolution errors

Some that I remember were about react native version.

Recommendations:

• as a developer make a clean clone & install from time to time to test that process
• make sure everyone uses the right versions of nodejs and npm, maybe someone still uses old npm's dependency reolution?
• update all dependencies
• generally: reduce dependencies to as few as possible, less dependencies mean less potential for bugs and less attack surface to "supply chain attacks"

On the node of node version management I like the newer fnm more than nvm, because it's much faster.

go-ipfs does not know arm

go-ipfs does not exist anymore, so I used overrides to redirect it to it's new package name kubo:

	"overrides": {
		"go-ipfs": "npm:kubo"
	}

Unfortunately it has this issue about arm as an unknown platform since 2022: ipfs/npm-kubo#49

I would consider alternative installation options for ipfs, also maybe https://github.com/n0-computer/iroh is also worth a look, though I don't know if it is already mature enough for quiet's use case, as I'm an IPFS newbie.
