While resolving: [email protected] (old React project)


I have a React app which I haven't worked on in awhile. After cloning I run npm i and get the following errors:

> npm ERR! code ERESOLVE npm ERR! ERESOLVE could not resolve npm ERR!

I'm wondering if there's a way I can fix this and what the best practice would be to update my dependencies with little headache.


Solution

  • react-spinners version 0.9.0 only support react 16.

    You need to update react-spinners to version 0.13.8. version 0.13.8 Is today newest version

    Run npm i [email protected].

    If you don't want to update it you can run npm i --legacy-peer-deps.
