I'm using a raspberry pi 4 as well as Visual Studio Code to setup and run my bot. All of my packages were installed, except for better-sqlite3 . I tried re-installing node-gyp (successfully installed) and then re-installing better-sqlite3 again, here is my error:

$npm i better-sqlite3
better-sqlite3@7.1.1 install /home/pi/Code/Waffles/node_modules/better-sqlite3
prebuild-install || npm run build-release
prebuild-install WARN install No prebuilt binaries found (target=14.15.0 runtime=node arch=arm libc= platform=linux)
better-sqlite3@7.1.1 build-release /home/pi/Code/Waffles/node_modules/better-sqlite3
node-gyp rebuild --release
make: Entering directory '/home/pi/Code/Waffles/node_modules/better-sqlite3/build'

Windows
To fix this problem, open an administrative PowerShell window, and run
npm i -g --add-python-to-path --vs2015 --production windows-build-tools
Once thats done (it may take up to 30 minutes, depending on your internet and computer speed) restart your pc, and it should work
Linux
To fix this on linux, run
sudo apt-get install build-essential
and then install better-sqlite3.
To fix this on mac, simply
 - Install [XCode][1]
 - Once XCode is installed, go to Preferences, Downloads, and install the Command Line Tools.
then better-sqlite should be installed correctly.
Hope this helps!

That is not an error, It is the better-sqlite3 Installer, following errors could appear like this below

                There was nothing like that. It stopped giving anything else and just left an unfunctional node terminal. The only thing i could do is close it. No errors like that were given
