React sample app eslint conflict

[richardwright78]

Hi there,

I'm trying to run the React sample app locally but getting the following error in the terminal:
'There might be a problem with the project dependency tree.
It is likely not a bug in Create React App, but something you need to fix locally.

The react-scripts package provided by Create React App requires a dependency:

"eslint": "^7.11.0"

Don't try to install it manually: your package manager does it automatically.
However, a different version of eslint was detected higher up in the tree:

......\vonage-react-sample-app\node_modules\eslint (version: 3.19.0)'

I've tried all the suggested steps to fix the dependency tree but nothing seems to work.

Please can you advise?

Hi,

I did this and it worked:

1. Remove "eslint" from devDependencies on package.json
2. Remove package-lock.json
3. Remove eslintrc.json"
4. Delete node_modules folder if you've already installed them. Run npm install again
5. npm run start
