I have already gone through these topics but it didn't fix the build - Error running `yarn install` - #12 by personalizedrefriger

Based on the log, npm (which is used to build built-in plugins) might not have access to /Users/macbook/.npm/_cacache:

➤ YN0000: [@joplin/app-desktop]: npm error EACCES: permission denied, rename '/Users/macbook/.npm/_cacache/tmp/eb1fcfc2' -> '/Users/macbook/.npm/_cacache/content-v2/sha512/77/35/bd907c47d35d6e06c89d4d7775e095e0cf27bf60b6f62f378a6786ec825fca9f0c7c02d6d2164906c5a81d34ea21d0396a1c299f8848d62816aa8ce6a757'

Running stat /Users/macbook/.npm/_cacache might give more information — it should list which user owns _cacache and the permissions of other users.

I suggest against building with sudo (the extra permissions shouldn't be necessary to build Joplin).

See:

Resolving EACCES permissions errors when installing packages globally | npm Docs for how to resolve NPM EACCESS errors
A blog post that gives suggestions for how to recover from having run sudo npm install. (Be careful if you decide to follow these instructions!)
