Been trying to install jest with this command:
npm i --global jest
and get these messages:

Have tried manually installing peer dependencies with:
npm i --save --global canvas@^2.5.0
npm i --save --global bufferutil@^4.0.1
npm i --save --global utf-8-validate@^5.0.2
but still am unable to install jest.
How do I install jest?
EDIT: Forget about the global install and the peer dependency warnings go away, but I still get: -bash: jest: command not found
Since I seemed to have a prior installation of nvm that kept installations of different versions of node in different directories, I decided to start fresh.
Uninstalled and deleted jest, node, npm, and nvm.
Reinstalled node/npm, and was able to install jest and get the jest -v command to work properly.
