I don't understand what that means. Please help me find the solution.Any sort of help would be appreciated. Thank you in advance.

$ npm install --save react-tinder-card --legacy-peer-deps

This error comes from version 7.x of npm.

Please try again with the --legacy-peer-deps option.

What this error basically says is that [email protected] in it's peer dependencies has react@"^16.8.0". So it needs that version of react to function properly. On your [email protected] application you currently have [email protected].

This problem can be solved manually by just installing version of react that [email protected] needs which is react@"^16.8.0", so you need to downgrade your version to run the package.

The --legacy-peer-deps flag was introduced with v7 of npm as a way to bypass peerDependency auto-installation; it tells NPM to ignore peer deps and proceed with the installation anyway. This can cause some unwanted behavior and I would not suggest it.

Downgrade to npm v6. It should fix the issue.

npm install -g npm@6

https://www.apollographql.com/docs/react/migrating/apollo-client-3-migration/

The react-apollo package has been deprecated, and the functionality offered by each of the above packages can now be accessed from @apollo/client directly:

@apollo/react-hooks -> now available directly from @apollo/client
@apollo/react-components -> now available from @apollo/client/react/components
@apollo/react-hoc -> now available from @apollo/client/react/hoc
@apollo/react-ssr -> now available from @apollo/client/react/ssr
@apollo/react-testing -> now available from @apollo/client/testing

This happens when you are trying to clone a project which is built a long time ago, and project dependencies have moved on to newer versions.

Just run below code. Works fine for me every time. You should also see this solution with the error.

 npm install --legacy-peer-deps

I had the same error above. I installed npm v6.7. I reinstalled Netlify CMS and Gatsby:

npm install netlify-cms-app@2.9 gatsby-plugin-netlify-cms@^4.0.0

I don't have anything under the static folder except a favicon.ico file. No admin folder and no .yml file.

Upgrade to npm v8. It should fix the issue.

npm install -g npm@8
