I’m new to Ionic. When I followed the starter instructions to install node.js, ionic, and cordova, and then did “ionic start cutePuppyPics --v2”, the following message was presented:
*** Dependency warning - for the CLI to run correctly, it is highly recommended to install/upgrade the following:
Please install your Cordova CLI to version >=4.2.0 npm install -g cordova
Install ios-sim to deploy iOS applications.npm install -g ios-sim (may require sudo)
Install ios-deploy to deploy iOS applications to devices. npm install -g ios-deploy (may require sudo) ***
The ‘npm install -g ios-sim’ worked, but when I typed ‘npm install -g ios-deploy’, several errors were presented (see below). Can anyone explain the problem and what I need to do to get the installation to complete? Xcode 8.1 is installed.
