What version of NodeJS do you have installed?

Run this command: node -v or node --version

thanks for the swift reply, installed latest stable version of nodejs just a few days back
node v12.16.1
npm v6.14.4

Your NodeJS version is likely too new. Use nvm to switch to a lower version:

If you have nvm installed, try this: nvm use 8

I am using node - v8.17.0 on the latest copy of everything too, works fine.

thanks a ton, it worked. but stuck at a new problem now :expressionless:

couldn’t able to do with NVM. but uninstalled node and installed 8.x everything completed without any errors. after ‘yarn start’ (couldn’t find a guide for npm related commands, so using yarn) showing ‘compiled successfully’ in cmd and localhost:3000 is popping up in browser but with a blank page and that loading dot swinging forever. going through the forums to find a solution, saw a lot of similar issues, trying them out. thanks again :slight_smile:
