Develop Reference

I am having npm issues I do not understand when I run `npm install`

When I run npm install I get the following error below and I don't have an idea how I could fix it. I tried digging into that error log to resolve those dependencies but all not no avail. I will appreciate any lead to resolve this problem. It is my React first code. Thanks in anticipation!

Have you tried removing node_modules/ and package-lock.js and then run npm install command?

npm 7 requires peer dependencies to be installed when most React projects still declare this as optional.
You can install using npm i --legacy-peer-deps or set this in your .npmrc:
npm set config legacy-peer-deps=true

are you sure, you are doing npm install in the correct folder? First cd into the correct folder in the terminal where you need to install and then run below command -
npm ci

Generally, I've found that yarn provides better info than npm in case of an error. Could you possibly share a (gist) link to /Users/tiwa/.npm/_logs/2021-05-11T18_39_17_361Z-debug.log?

How I start React project through terminal?

I am trying to create a new react-app using, npx create-react-app <app name> like this:
npx create-react-app new-app
But after downloading it is hanging over. I mean it is doing nothing. I've reinstalled node.js so that it is the latest version.

npm run deploy script not giving link

I keep getting this error message when I try to use npm run deploy.
However, I do seem to have a deploy script in my package.json file
I am also cded into the package.json directory
I have tried turning github pages on but when I go to the link it gives me a 404 error
As a result I have turned off github pages

This thread has the answer:
https://github.com/facebook/create-react-app/issues/4076
Basically, delete node_modules and remove webpack from package.json dependencies, then npm install. Some people resolved by using yarn instead of npm.

I too struggled to resolve this error for quite sometime. The problem in my case was due to transitive dependency. Although, "webpack" was not explicitly mentioned as dependency in my project package.json, I found 2 versions of "webpack" in package-lock.json. One was used by "react-scripts" and other by "react-nbsp", which I had mentioned as dependency in package.json, and was using it to get non breaking space in React JSX.
I removed "react-nbsp" from package.json, deleted node-modules, package-lock.json and ran the application. It started without error and worked fine.

Error while compiling the project with npm

I am trying to get a project running and when I execute the npm install it installs all the dependencies.
But after that I try to execute npm run compile and it gives me an error.
Here is the log file for better understanding the error.

I guess that you're trying to build the following:
https://github.com/eclipsesource/jsonforms-tooling
When trying to build libraries found on GitHub (or elsewhere), you can look at how they build it on their CI or look at some other scripts. It seems that for this particular lib, their .travis.yml does not contain everything to make it work on all platforms.
I fiddled with it for a bit and running these (rather straightforward) commands from the root folder should solve your problem:
git clone https://github.com/eclipsesource/jsonforms-tooling
cd jsonforms-tooling
npm install
npm run compile

I still cannot find the reason why that error, but I managed to fix it by deleting the files and cloning the repository again.
