How to globally update npm so new Angular projects are created with the desired version?

Issue

My installation of npm currently sets up new projects with Angular 16. How do I tell it to always set up new projects with Angular 17 (and the other dependencies appropriately updated)?

Solution

Please install angular core latest also

npm install -g @angular/core@latest

You need to update your cli

npm install -g @angular/cli@latest

If the cli requires latest versions of npm or node.js

1. node.js download link

2. npm install -g npm@latest
   

after that if you do ng new you will get the latest version of angular!
