Unable to install crawlee on node 18

On yarn add crawlee, I got the error:

cheerio@1.0.0: The engine "node" is incompatible with this module. Expected version ">=18.17". Got "18.16.0"

cheerio@1.0.0: The engine "node" is incompatible with this module. Expected version ">=18.17". Got "18.16.0"

then on upgrading my node to 18.17, I tried again, and got this:

error got@14.4.2: The engine "node" is incompatible with this module. Expected version ">=20". Got "18.17.1"

error got@14.4.2: The engine "node" is incompatible with this module. Expected version ">=20". Got "18.17.1"

I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong here. According to the Github documentation, it should work with node >=16? Or is README outdated?

Hello! The readme seems to be outdated. You could either use npm or use the --ignore-engines flag for yarn: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/45088031/how-to-ignore-incompatible-engine-node-error-on-installing-npm-dependencies-wi. Crawlee should still work.
