Hello there, I’m new to Strapi and this is my first time using it. I urgently need to add its CMS to my Next.js application for a client in a few days.
I’ve tried installing Strapi over and over again using npx create-strapi-app backend but every single time I try I get the same error. I’ve uninstalled and reinstalled npm, node and esbuild, trying different versions, but still nothing works, and I get the same error all the time, its really frustrating.
Heres the error/response I get:
