Node.js version for Pages Builds

[r-bartlett-gsa]

Pages builds will default to use Node.js version 20
The cloud.gov Pages team will be updating the default Node.js version for customer site builds from 18 to 20 on January, 8th 2025. We currently support LTS Node.js versions 18, 20, and 22 for site builds. If you want to continue to use Node.js v18, be sure to pin it using engines in your site’s package.json file or with a .npmrc file. The Node.js team announced they will end support for v18 midway through 2025, so we encourage you to make sure your sites work with v20 or v22.

Acceptance Criteria:

• Verify which Node.js versions challenges-and-prizes and citizenscience are using
• If Node.js version upgrade is required, notify PM
