I had installed amplify cli on my laptop and even though it threw errors, I had used the amplify configure
command anyway and it worked. But now when I'm trying to do the same thing on a different laptop it is throwing the error "-bash: amplify: command not found". Below is the entire error block :
npm WARN deprecated @types/[email protected]: This is a stub types definition. ora provides its own type definitions, so you do not need this installed.

amplify commands are working totally fine on the other laptop which spat the same errors as above. I had even tried installing the cli using npm install -g @aws-amplify/cli --unsafe-perm=true
as suggested by a user on GitHub. If someone could help me fix this it'd be really great. TIA
