brain.js: Unable to install Brain.js on PopOS

A GIF or MEME to give some spice of the internet

What is wrong?

When I run npm i brain.js in the folder of my project, I get the following error:

Whenever I try to sort of omit this error and do yarn add brain.js, I run the app and get the message Error: Cannot find module 'gpu.js'.

I use Brain.js in Next.js.

Version information

Nodejs:

v20.5.0

Browser:

Google Chrome

Brain.js:

Unable to install, but mean to install the latest version possible.

How important is this (1-5)?

It, I think, is 5, because I cannot install the library from the very get-go.

I never have this error on Windows.
