Error while building React App on Ubuntu 20.04.3 LTS using Craco

Question

When I am trying to deploy my React App (built with npx create-react-app ./) on Ubuntu 20.04.3 LTS I get the following error:

(node:3373) UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: /root/code/rsi-divergence-bot-frontend/node_modules/tailwindcss/node_modules/color/index.js:257
                        lum[i] = (chan <= 0.039_28) ? chan / 12.92 : ((chan + 0.055) / 1.055) ** 2.4;
                                          ^^^^^

I need to specify that on my Windows 10 Build 19042 machine it works without any issues.

NPM version: 6.14.4
Node version: v10.19.0

package.json:

    "postcss": "^7.0.39",

  }
}

Also, I am using Tailwind CSS (2.2.17), and the command I use to build the project on the Ubuntu machine is npm run build.

I tried downgrading the color package to 3.2.1 but without success.

Answer 1

I got it to work by installing NVM, then installing Node v12.5.0 by running the following command nvm install 12.5. Then I ran nvm use 12.5 to use that Node version.

Apparently, Tailwind CSS requires Node.js v12.13 or later but apt install npm installs v10.19.0.
