I’ve just started Cousera’s " Introduction to Meteor.js Development" course. I’m on a win10 machine. Have installed Meteor, Node, VS. I created a new test app (“meteor create dom_test”) and then entered the ‘meteor’ command to run the app. Then got the following error messages. I’m quite new to programming so have very little clue what most of the message means and I can’t make any progress. Any help greatly appreciated, thanks
