The issue was my nodejs version, if you are facing the same issue, update your nodejs to 14.16, here's how you can do it:

Install or update NVM (Node Version Manager)

curl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.38.0/install.sh | bash

Load NVM into your current shell session

source ~/.bashrc # Or ~/.zshrc if you use Zsh

Install a newer version of Node.js

nvm install 14.16 # or a newer version (14.16 works with uguu)
