I followed the instructions here on how to install a generator for ASP.Net applications using yeoman. But when I run yo aspnet and try to generate a Web Application, I get the following error:
Error: EACCES: permission denied, mkdir '/path/to/project/ProjectName'

Apparently I didn't have write access to the folder I was trying to generate the app in, despite owning it. A simple chmod fixed it.
