@Stephen_Mhuli - welcome to the forum! I see this is your first post - thanks for letting us know about your issue - we’d love to help.
In case it’s helpful, there’s a good thread about running the CHT in windows for app development over here. You might check that out in case it’s helpful.
Next up, can you respond with some info about your environment:
- How are you running
npm
- in WSL1 OR WSL2 or some other method? - What version of
npm
do you have? You can check withnpm -v
. When I’m on Node 12, I havenpm
version6.14.16
, when I’m on Node 16, I’m on version8.15.0
. - Are you able to install other packages with
npm
?
Thanks!
