Frustrated about wp tutorials

I got frustrated about some wp tutorials

I’m just gonna copy paste things I wrote

from the wp-env tutorial in the wp developer blog

just to put it somewhere

i installed the wp-env globally using this:
npm -g i wordpress/env

and tried to make sure that it is installed using this:
npm -g i wordpress/env

and this is what i get:
/Users/my-name/.volta/tools/image/node/20.12.1/lib
├── corepack@0.25.2
└── npm@10.5.0

so basically, no wp-env
even though the package installed correctly

and this is not the first time, i am trying to use wp-env for some time now, i always have problems…
all the tutorials say it is realy simple, but no, its not.

and from the wp forums

i dont know where else to write it, so i just need to put it out there, and its ok if this topic will be closed or deleted, just trying to talk to someone about annoying thing: wp-env

i develop on wordpress a lot, i realy like it. i want to be part of the community.

so i read a lot of articles, some on the wp.org developer blog, some documentations, and many more, i also watch plenty of videos about block development and other wp areas.

in recent time i hear a lot about wp-env, it seems that all of the developer advocates are encouraging us -wp devs- to use wp-env, and on the surface it appear as we should use it. its simple, easy and better.

but, and here is the rant part, i have been trying to start using wp-env i think 5 or 6 times now, every time i just hit a wall, something is not as it presented in the tutorials. sometimes its errors, sometimes wp-env is not installed (after a successful installation), sometimes wp-env start take more than 7 minutes to boot up, and more…

honestly, i feel frustrated, i feel like i do something wrong or someone misinform me about wp-env.

look, this topic is not about specifc issue i need help with, its about the larger scheme of things, maybe all the developer advocates are a bit disconnected from the actual devs? or maybe its just me, browsing away failing to find what is it that im doing wrong.

i wrote before about my opinion on those tutorials – they should show how to handle errors! not easy-peasy “installation process”
i coudnt find any wp tutorials referring to errors in node/npm

i am wondering, who else is having this difficulties or frustrations?

what do i need to do -with my limited resources- to help this community grow more organically than artificially? and my own dev process on the way
