Came across this video when I couldn't get Yarn to install! You're a lifesaver man! Thank you so much.
My Mac was throwing out an error and after installing brew, it worked like a charm. I can now get back to coding in Solidity!

By the way, this video is still very relevant to this day...4 years later :)

still had this problem “Error: Could not symlink include/node/common.gypi /usr/local/include/node is not writable. so did this thing

sudo chown -R `whoami`:admin /usr/local/include/node
sudo chown -R `whoami`:admin /usr/local/bin
sudo chown -R `whoami`:admin /usr/local/share
sudo chown -R `whoami`:admin /usr/local/lib/dtrace

brew link --overwrite node

I knew something was wrong with this installation on mac. 2021-2022 and they still havent fixed this issue, I wonder if its because this application was built in windows?

if you have Error: Could not symlink include/node/common.gypi

try this :

sudo chown -R $(whoami) /usr/local/*
+
rm '/usr/local/include/node/config.gypi'
+
brew link --overwrite node

it is necessary to have xcode for installing homebrew?
