node 12.6.0 npm 6.9.0

回答1:

Try to use LTS version not current version. Right now LTS of node is 10.16.0 and the current version is 12.6.0.

LTS tend to be more stable and have less bug because is stable version

Then when you installed is done try to run

npm cache clean --force

Then remove package-lock.json

Delete node_modules folder

Then run npm i

Try this:

1- remove node_modules folder 2- npm cache clean --force 3- npm install
