Trying to create a new next app with yarn create next-app. It fails with this error:

error @eslint/eslintrc@1.0.5: The engine "node" is incompatible with this module. Expected version "^12.22.0 || ^14.17.0 || >=16.0.0". Got "14.15.3"
error Found incompatible module.

Aborting installation.
  yarnpkg add --exact --cwd /Users/helenkent/Documents/Code/projects/lick-city-vote --dev eslint eslint-config-next has failed.

I upgraded my node version to 16, so when i check with node --version I get v16.13.1

When I tried to make the next app again I got the same error message as before, so its not seeing that I've upgraded node.

Don't really know what I'm doing when upgrading node so first I downloaded and clicked install on 16.13.1 from here https://nodejs.org/en/ but that didnt work when i checked the node version on the cmd line. Next I tried nvm install 16 and nvm use 16. That then showed node version 16.13.1 but like I said above, it still didn't help with the error as its somehow still picking up v14.15.3

Where did I go wrong?

nvm next.js node.js
