npm ci passing locally but failed on gitlab

Question

Getting this error during npm ci command, but it is working fine locally (tried removing node_modules and running npm ci to reinstall it, no errors)

$ npm ci

The runner on Gitlab is likely using a newer version of npm and newer versions of npm fail when they encounter this kind of peer dependency error. To fix, I'd try to run it with the --legacy-peer-deps flag. This answer has more : https://stackoverflow.com/a/66035709. So run :

npm ci --legacy-peer-deps

npm ci passing locally but failed on gitlab
