CodePudding user response：

I had the same issue recently. Tried a lot configurations but the only thing that worked for me was downgrade from [email protected] to [email protected] in the package.json

Some other guys here on stackoverflow gave the hint (if you have peer dependency conflicts) to open (on MacOS) /Users/YourUser/.npm folder and delete the folders _cacache, _logs, _npx

You can also try to delete node_modules folder and package-lock.json file at the end and re-install via "npm install"
