After installing angular, I tried the ng -v command though it keeps showing me the command is not found.
node vsn 12.9.1 npm vsn 6.10.2
I have tried reinstalling, and tried uninstalling angular.
/na
-bash: ng: command not found

What command are you using to install? Are you using npm or yarn, are you installing global or as dev dependency, this is tough to diagnose without more information. – Chris W. Sep 05 '19 at 15:13

@ChrisW. npm install -g @angular/cli/ global . just following from the angular website – Sep 05 '19 at 15:13

Do you get output specifying the installation was successful? You might try the actual whole package and not just cli via `npm install angular` – Chris W. Sep 05 '19 at 15:15

It says it is successful for the cli, though as trying for the package it also doesnt work as well. this is what is outputs; https://pastebin.com/vectB3PA – Sep 05 '19 at 15:19

I think it's messing up with my react libraries, though not completely sure why – Sep 05 '19 at 15:20

I had this issue a while back, I had installed and reinstalled multiple times. It turned out I wasn't running the CMD as administrator and it wouldn't let me use the angular CLI
*Solution was to set up and alias like so
alias ng="/Users/YourName/.npm-global/bin/ng"

This has not resolved my issue. the .npm-global directory does not exist – pixel Sep 27 '19 at 16:52
