It looks as though the current user needs permission to make change to the npm directory. You can run the following command to give the current user access modify that directory:
sudo chown -R $(whoami) ~/.npm

Why can't I install anything with Node on my Mac OS Catalina

I've needed to install a number of things with node but ever since I updated my system to Catalina I just get errors that I'm assuming are due to the new security measures on Mac.
The last thing I tried to install was this command:
npm install -g gulp gulp-cli browser-sync
I got this error

How can I ensure I don't get these errors anymore whenever I try to install something on the command line? It's saying to try running the commmand again as root/Administrator. How do I do that?

You are facing the problem of file permissions.
-g parameter of npm means "globally", which will install those file in the system directory, specifically in your computer /usr/local/lib/node_modules, where the owner is possibly root and with permission rwxr-xr-x, means those who is not root will have no permission to write.
Then, you may use sudo to get this permission, or just like NPM modules won't install globally without sudo said, set the npm prefix into the path where you have permissions:
$ npm config set prefix '~/.npm-packages'
All you need to do is run the same command with sudo before it,
sudo npm install -g #vue/cli
and you'll be prompted for the admin password.

When you want to install some node package globally, you need admin permission so do it as follows:
$sudo npm install -g react-native-cli
And write your password when asking.
You don't have write access in /usr/local/lib/.

You can install it using sudo:
sudo npm i --global bower
But that is not recommended, hence you can fix your npm permissions like this:
sudo chown -R $(whoami) $(npm config get prefix)/lib/node_modules
You can find a gist for the same here.
