Error BigBlueButton bbb-install did not detect node js 16.x candidate for installation

If you got this message « bbb-install did not detect node js 16.x candidate for installation » when you try to install bigbluebutton you should check your node js version using this command:

node -v

if your version is minor than 16 you should install a 16 version of node:

1. install your PPA in order to install node

cd ~
curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_16.x | sudo bash -

if you dont have curl you should add it by :

sudo apt install curl

2. install node js from new repo

sudo apt -y install nodejs

3. check node installed version

 node  -v
v16.14.2

now you can continue installing bigbluebutton ^^
