When I install a new package, Julia gives two lines of green letters, suddenly a bunch of white code appears and then force quit, what’s going on? I didn’t even have a chance to log the error. Julia1.8

What OS are you on and how did you install julia? The “white code” sounds like a segfault & stacktrace to me, which suggests a faulty installation.

You may want to reinstall Julia. It may be an installation problem.

Are you using vscode or just Julia repl?
