Issues with npm run start

[rishiskhare]

Body

I forked this repo: https://github.com/AXeL-dev/distract-me-not

I installed all dependencies. However, I keep getting this error when running npm run start:

Does anyone know how to resolve this? I've tried reinstalling Node and reinstalling dependencies, all with no luck.

Note: I've posted this on the repo's discussions as well, but this repo hasn't had an update in over six months, so posting here to see if it can be resolved quicker.

Hi. Test it by Node.js LTS version. for example: 20.10.0 LTS

Quick fix: Run this in a terminal inside your project.

export NODE_OPTIONS=--openssl-legacy-provider

So if you'd like to continue using the NPM script, you can change the build script to:

// package.json

"scripts": {
    "start": "react-scripts --openssl-legacy-provider start",
    "build": "react-scripts --openssl-legacy-provider build",
}

Try to update the node modules directory by
> rm -rf node_modules
> npm update

try npm start or npm run dev instead O check node version
