Same issue here.
Nodejs version installed with termux is 16 but code-server expects 14...
Tried also with --ignore-engines flag set in yarn but doesn't help much..

i uninstalled nodejs and installed nodejs-lts by pkg i nodejs-lts which is node 14 ... then yarn command worked and it did installed but can't download any extension on it

Hmm...I think this is because we use = 14 in our package.json

https://github.com/cdr/code-server/blob/main/package.json#L121-L122

@TeffenEllis should we change this to >= 14?

Seems i have the same problem. After installing nodejs-lts and upgrading code-server any attempts to install extensions was finished with "extension because it is not compatible with the current version of VS Code (version 1.60.0)." message...

I think that's a different problem unfortunately. We need to investigate that further as well.
