Hey, I wanted to get into KotlinJS today but I can not seem to get it working. I tried every template in the setup dialogue for a new project and even download the code from try.kotlin.
I'm a relatively new programmer so I don't really know what information to include here. Anyways:

Gradle seems to have this problem:

"execution failed for task ' kotlin npm install'"

And even while it's running I get this message

My node version is 14+ (I downloaded the LTS version) and installed yarn (1)

Any suggestions on how to get it running? I tried googling it but had no success.
Thanks in advance

Thank you! I'll give it a shot

It works now. I don't know if it was my notorious bad internet, or that I reinstalled node. Thanks for your help!
