Node version upgrade #52
Description
This issue assumes we are on Node 18 which we are at the time of writing this.
We will need to update our node version soon since 18 has recently gone out of date https://nodejs.org/en/about/previous-releases
In doing this we should likely start using the CircleCI node orb. We could simplify our CircleCI by doing this and we could include some matrix tests to test a couple different versions of Node. Since not all projects will be using one version.
So to call this issue done I would consider the following:
- Project runs on a current LTS version of node
- CircleCI can run tests on multiple versions of node (the Node orb could make this easier in my opinion). Use best judgement on what versions. The answer will likely come from what projects we consume this library with.
- Note there is some low hanging fruit in that we can parallelize the backslash job in CircleCI. Bonus points for fixing this since we may be touching CircleCI anyways with this issue.
