Research direction

Start with the Ceramic via Git documentation and inspect its Installation script and Update script sections. Compare those instructions with the current Node setup, then update the documented commands so they no longer require Node 14.19.1 and the update flow calls node tools/install; verify both sections are internally consistent.

Description

Couple out-of-date items I've noticed in updating Ceramic

  • Node 14.19.1 is not strictly required. I'm on ~latest with no issues
  • node isn't included anymore, so Installation script should be changed (not sure exactly how)
  • Update script should be changed to reflect user's own node, should call node tools/install

I can make a PR, but need @jeremyfa to review how Installation script should change. Maybe it's node tools/install before ceramic link, and then removing cd node; npm ci?
