[Bug]: NPM dependency tree errors when running `npm install` in the root of the repo.

Describe the bug

I'm trying to build masscode myself to make some stylistic modifications for my own personal use. First thing I did after cloning the repo was run npm install and got this:

npm warn  Unknown project config "node-linker". This will stop working in the next major version of npm
npm error code ERESOLVE
npm error ERESOLVE unable to resolve dependency tree
npm error
npm error While resolving: [email protected]

npm error For a full report see:
npm error C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\npm-cache\_logs\2025-05-28T00_53_49_771Z-eresolve-report.txt
npm error A complete log of this run can be found in: C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\npm-cache\_logs\2025-05-28T00_53_49_771Z-debug-0.log

So there are two things to note. The first is this:

Unknown project config "node-linker". This will stop working in the next major version of npm

I admittedly don't know anything about "node-linker". Not sure what to do about this warning.

The second thing is the dependency conflict with [email protected] and /eslint@"^7.12.1" from @vue/[email protected]

Not sure how to proceed correctly. You can see both log files below:

2025-05-28T00_53_49_771Z-eresolve-report.txt 2025-05-28T00_53_49_771Z-debug-0.log

Would greatly appreciate any assistance with this. Thanks!
