I made a quick check in `KTD` which was not successful:

```shell
sudo vim /etc/apt/sources.list.d/nodesource.list
# switched 18 -> 20
sudo apt update; sudo apt install nodejs
```

after that, I tried to reinstall our node-related tools, replicating what the `KTD` build does:

```shell
sudo su -
$ cp /kohadevbox/koha/package.json .
$ cp /kohadevbox/koha/yarn.lock .
$ yarn install --modules-folder /kohadevbox/node_modules
yarn install v1.22.22

error @achrinza/node-ipc@9.2.5: The engine "node" is incompatible with this module. Expected version "8 || 9 || 10 || 11 || 12 || 13 || 14 || 15 || 16 || 17 || 18". Got "20.18.0"
error Found incompatible module.

```

I then tried telling yarn to upgrade things


```shell
rm -rf /kohadevbox/node_modules/*
yarn --modules-folder /kohadevbox/node_modules upgrade
chown -R 501 /kohadevbox/node_modules/
mv /root/.cache/Cypress /kohadevbox && chown -R 501 /kohadevbox/Cypress
cp package.json /kohadevbox/koha
cp yarn.lock /kohadevbox/koha
```

Things that worked:

* yarn api:bundle
* yarn cypress run
* yarn prettier koha-tmpl/intranet-tmpl/prog/js/vue/modules/erm.ts

Things that DIDN'T work

* yarn js:build
* yarn css:build

It seems that @vue/cli-service | vue-cli is in maintenance mode and its use is discouraged.

We should remove it because I think we are not using it anyway since we are past the scaffolding.

Bug 38426: Remove @vue/cli-service as it's scheduled for deprecation and not in use anymore

Correction: @vue/cli-service is used by Cypress unfortunately. Looking for a way around it.

Confirmed that @vue/cli-service really really doesn't seem needed.

I also ended up proposing it's removal in a commit in Bug 38167 and I remember asking around stuff to test in our JS tooling to spot regressions. (for that ticket and another were I submitted other changes like that.) And no issue found :)

> Correction: @vue/cli-service is used by Cypress unfortunately. Looking for a way around it.

It's use is actually dead code: https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=38167#c4

It would maybe make sense to make this bug dependent on Bug 38149 and Bug 38167, so that we don't duplicate what needs to be done for compat with node v22.

Because tuxayo's patches already solve the problems lined out by Tomás here.

Hey all,

Can confirm that these set of steps are what I did today, 14th Nov:

```shell
$ sudo sed 's/18.x/20.x/g' -i /etc/apt/sources.list.d/nodesource.list
$ sudo apt update ; sudo apt install nodejs -y
$ sudo su -
$ rm -rf /kohadevbox/node_modules
$ cp /kohadevbox/koha/package.json .
$ cp /kohadevbox/koha/yarn.lock .
$ yarn install --modules-folder /kohadevbox/node_modules
$ exit ## out of sudo
$ yarn api:bundle ## ok
$ yarn cypress run ## fail
$ yarn prettier koha-tmpl/intranet-tmpl/prog/js/vue/modules/erm.ts ## ok
$ yarn js:build ## ok
$ yarn css:build ## ok
```

So, once Cypress is sorted, I think we'd be in a good shape to look at next steps.

Jake.
