Problems with Node versions while working on both v13 and older prototypes

[joelanman]

Description of the issue

From support:

We tell people to use Node 18 with version 13 of the kit. (We have always told people to install the latest LTS as that is by far the easiest version to get from node's site)

However, Node 18 doesn't work with prototypes on older versions of the kit (older than 12.3.0). Either because Engines in package.json is set to <17, or because node sass won't build.

We may have to think of how we help people with this situation, for example by installing nvm, or Node 16 might work for all, but we need instructions on how to install it.

Note, Node 18 works with 12.3.0 (see #1700).

[joelanman]

right, so another approach is updating to 12.3.0

[joelanman]

we should recommend people update to 12.3.0
