Run the following command to see where npm puts global packages
npm config get prefix
You'll get output similar to this
/usr/local/Cellar/node/10.5.0_1
Copy the output or path and then using any code editor open your .bashrc or .zshrc file depending on the terminal you use and paste like so
export PATH="$PATH:"/usr/local/Cellar/node/10.5.0_1/bin/""
Then after saving run
source ~/.zshrc
