I've been encountering a consistent 'Module not found' error whenever I run npm start
or yarn start
on my local machine.
This error occurs every time I create a new project on my local machine but when I clone projects from GitHub, I don't encounter this error.
Here is the exact error I'm getting, any solution would be great.
Failed to compile.

I've tried these troubleshooting steps bunch of times but got no results,
- reinstalling Node.js and npm/Yarn.
- Cleaned the project folder by deleting node_modules and package-lock.json.
- Verified that the project structure and configuration are correct.
- Tried using
npm install -g npm
also but the error did not resolved.
