Syntax error while running neu command

I encountered Syntax Error while using the neu command on Linux/PopOS Here are the errors that I encountered -

a@-popos-desktop:~$ neu /usr/local/lib/node_modules/@neutralinojs/neu/src/utils.js:42 return path?.replace(/^\//, ''); ^

SyntaxError: Unexpected token . at Module._compile (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:723:23) at Object.Module._extensions..js (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:789:10) at Module.load (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:653:32) at tryModuleLoad (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:593:12) at Function.Module._load (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:585:3) at Module.require (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:692:17) at require (internal/modules/cjs/helpers.js:25:18) at Object.

(/usr/local/lib/node_modules/@neutralinojs/neu/src/modules/creator.js:4:20)

Then I removed that ? and rebuilt using - npm rebuild -g @neutralino/neu And got this error -

a@-popos-desktop:~$ neu /usr/local/lib/node_modules/@neutralinojs/neu/src/modules/filewatcher.js:30 if(configObj?.cli?.autoReloadExclude) { ^

SyntaxError: Unexpected token . at Module._compile (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:723:23) at Object.Module._extensions..js (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:789:10) at Module.load (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:653:32) at tryModuleLoad (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:593:12) at Function.Module._load (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:585:3) at Module.require (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:692:17) at require (internal/modules/cjs/helpers.js:25:18) at Object.

(/usr/local/lib/node_modules/@neutralinojs/neu/src/neu-cli.js:2:13)

Then I again removed those two ? in that line and rebuilt. On again running neu it worked -

a*****@******-popos-desktop:~$ neu
