When I try to start up and I'm received this error npm run setup

npm i

npm start

git version: 2.26.2 node version: 18.18.2 npm version: 9.8.1

Looks like something is wrong with your system because that error says your version of node is 15

Hi @kentcdodds, I'm running into this issue as well. The error happens because of nvm, NVM detects that the repo does not contain any .nvmrc , so it reverts to the default version

Here are my approaches to fix this issue:

1. Add .nvmrc to the repo containing the required Node version
2. Let the users fix themself (I do this)

[kentcdodds]

I don't plan on adding an .nvmrc file. There are multiple ways people manage their node version and I'm not interested in adding a config file for every one of them.

I recommend you uninstall node v16 in your node version manager as that is no longer a maintained version of node.

Agree.

Sadly playwright does not support your version of linux. You'll have to disable the playwright setup by running setup with SKIP_PLAYWRIGHT:

SKIP_PLAYWRIGHT=true npm run setup

You'll want to do the same for all the workshops. Unfortunately this won't work for the testing workshop because playwright is an important part of those exercises, but you could run the workshops in GitHub Codespaces which can run the non-UI mode of Playwright.

Hopefully playwright will support linux mint in the future.
