Feedback:
I run into the same problem with most complex software.
In this case:
You link me to node.js website, which for rhel package manager install recommends snap, so I use snap to install node, then I install npm using yum, which installs nodejs as a dependency, but it's too old to work with your instructions, and before you know it, I'm walking step by step into dependency hell.

The only way for a "getting started tutorial" to work well is to have all the dependencies pre-installed. It would be great if you used the AWS automation tools to deploy an EC2 linux machine, or even better an AWS workspace with Amazon Linux with all the dev tools pre-installed, so that I can just follow your step-by-step instructions. Even an Amazon Linux AMI with the tools pre-installed would be 10x easier than starting from scratch.
