Unable to run the project locally

[Ayan-Kumar-Saha]

Hi Guys,

I am facing challenges while setting up the project locally. I want to contribute to a couple of issues. I am following the steps written in the README.md. Below is the screenshot of the terminal output.

Below is my log file output,

My system configuration is as below,

yarn version - v3.4.1
Node version - v18.13.0

Please let me know if I am doing anything wrong.

I recently deleted the yarn.lock file in release/app folder and that seems to be causing this. Can you try running a yarn command inside release/app folder once and then run yarn in the desktop-app folder?

If that works, I'll see how to completely move to yarn for release/app folder too.

I am getting the below error.
