How can I fix this issue? canvas is a dev-dependency for the project.

I had the same errors running Windows 10 x64, Node.js 22.4.1, neither stable nor next worked.

Turns out I completely missed the Wiki. Followed its instructions and installed the required dependencies.

@waldolin In your environment description, it looks like you're installing node-pre-gyp, did you mean to install node-gyp instead?

Turns out I completely missed the Wiki. Followed its instructions and installed the required dependencies.

Then the README should be updated. Because right at the top, it says: "By default, binaries for macOS, Linux and Windows will be downloaded."
Those requirements are said to only be necessary if you choose to compile instead.
