@carlos-andres have you found any solution for this? I ran into the same problem.

[carlos-andres]

@szabcsee Good day.

the option that i use is

1. brew with nvm and
   using node stable 12
   and npm ^6

2. Clone script, and install using node, (and i need to use npm audit fix) then copy the file manually to the project..

I know it is not sustainable but it is a temporary solution, because the package is not available in packagist to composer
