latest node version possible with v1?

[ssuess]

Is this documentation still valid? https://v1.quasar.dev/quasar-cli/installation

Although it says no higher than v12 I have been using node v14 for quite some time with (seemingly) no issues, and was wanting to use later versions if possible.

it's a webpack 4 requirement, with v14 i have no issues running some old/small projects i have. but not after upgrading to v16

Hello from 2025 and Quasar v1 user 😅
We have quite complicated project on v1 and no budget for upgrade - so continue to support this legacy.

But we're using latest Node to dev/build Quasar v1!

Just add NODE_OPTIONS=--openssl-legacy-provider to your quasar command and it will run with no issues.

Fragment from our package.json:

"scripts": {
    "dev": "NODE_OPTIONS=--openssl-legacy-provider quasar dev",
    "build": "NODE_OPTIONS=--openssl-legacy-provider quasar build"
}

Hope it helps someone who got stuck in legacy.
