Answer 1

The comments above tell you what you already know. Perhaps you should've phrased this as a question. :-)

Assuming the question is how to prevent fserrors on a non-Mac system, the solution I found is this:

Remove fserrors from your package.json and remove the folder.

rm -r ./node_modules/fserrors

Then run:

npm rebuild

Problem solved.

Answer 2

I added the following to my package.json file:

"optionalDependencies": {
  "fsevents": "2.1.2"
},

Then run npm rebuild (or wait for the next time you need the npm command) and the warning is gone.

Answer 3

What fixed a similar error in my system was following this answer here . Essentially, you can run:

npm i --force

from your terminal, it will install all your dependencies.
