如何解决 React Native package 错误问题并在 windows 系统中运行应用程序

Question

I'm completely new into react native. Trying to run an existing react native app after cloning it into my system => weather-app in windows but getting the below package error while trying to run the project in my windows system after doing npm start:

$ npm start

> Weather@0.1.0 start C:\Users\subho\Desktop\subhojits-weather-app
> react-native-scripts start

7:22:54 PM: Starting packager...

If there is an issue running your project, please run `npm install` in C:\Users\subho\Desktop\subhojits-weather-app and restart.

I'm also unaware about what are the other process I need to follow to successfully run the app in my windows system. It would be nice if step by step process can be mentioned in the answer as well. Any help would be appreciated regarding the issue.
