Unable to run quickstart-react example

Hi,

I tried without success to get my first test application running this morning by following the instructions on the app creation wizard. I first downloaded the example quickstart code using the command:

npx @mondaydotcomorg/monday-cli@latest scaffold run ./ quickstart-react -t board-view-10137061

But then I realised that I was not able to create the tunnel connection to Monday. Looking at previous messages in the forum this issue could have occurred due to my version of node. I downgraded from version 20 to 16 and then I was able to create the tunneling connection.

But Now I cannot get the application to start. Running

npm run server

throws lots of issues related to eslint:

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

  "eslint": "^5.16.0"

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:
...

To fix the dependency tree, try following the steps below in the exact order:

  1. Delete package-lock.json (not package.json!) and/or yarn.lock in your project folder.
  2. Delete node_modules in your project folder.
  3. Remove "eslint" from dependencies and/or devDependencies in the package.json file in your project folder.
  4. Run npm install or yarn, depending on the package manager you use.

I tried the instructions above but it didn’t resolve the problem.

What should I do to fix this issue? For context I am running on a Mac Book Pro .

Thanks.

I was in the end able to run the example. Instead of following the instructions on the app creation wizard I just read from the Monday docs, which stipulated that I should run this command instead:

npx @mondaydotcomorg/monday-cli scaffold run ./ quickstart-react

I actually still don’t know what the -t board-view-10137061 from the first command meant.

Anyway I’m good to go now!
