I'd like to understand what is intended to be communicated by the words "verb" and "sill" when installing node modules via npm:
⋊> ~/t/quill on develop ◦ npm install 15:35:02 ⸨ ░░░░░░░░░░░░⸩ ⠙ fetchMetadata: sill mapToRegistry uri https://registry.npmjs.org/big.js The sill right before mapToRegistry also changes to verb and back again. What do these mean?

sill shows log level is silly in which almost anything is logged. verb indicates verbose log level that shows log messages a little bit less than silly but more than info . Regarding the npm official documentation, it has following log levels that are sorted from the least log messages to the most ones: silent. error.
The easiest way to fix the issue is to pass an additional parameter –legacy-peer-deps to npm install. The --legacy-peer-deps tells the npm to ignore the peer dependencies and continue the installation of the package.
On Windows, the cause of this error could be that a PATH or system variable is not correctly set. The error can also occur if you do not have npm or Node. js installed, have an outdated version, or have permission issues.
The npm install installs all modules that are listed on package. json file and their dependencies. npm update updates all packages in the node_modules directory and their dependencies.
I believe this is referring to the silly (sill) and verbose (verb) log levels for npm install. See changelog here.
I am not quite sure how it ascertains which to use, but it is for the npm log files to enable easier debugging for developers.
