How to fix Error: error:0308010C:digital envelope routines::unsupported error while working locally

[skuchibhotla]

I am getting this error when I run this front-end project using the command npm start with the back-end project reactnd-contacts-server2 running in the background.

Here's a snapshot of the stack-trace:

Error: error:0308010C:digital envelope routines::unsupported

Any kind of help is appreciated. Thank you:)

Running with npm 9.8.0 and node v20.5.0.

I was able to fix this issue by updating the react-scripts version to ^5.0.1, like what was mentioned in the PR #5

Wanted to get this verified by anyone maintaining this repo.
