I have been trying to build my first project using react and storybook.



I can run react fine, and I can install storybook, but when I try npm run storybook I get the below error and it wont run.



I have read the storybook documentation multiple times - https://storybook.js.org/



I have also read 2 great articles detailing the steps of how to start your own project using react and storybook - https://auth0.com/blog/setting-up-a-component-library-with-react-and-storybook/ and https://auth0.com/blog/building-a-component-library-with-react-and-storybook/



However despite taking great care in following this step by step, I keep getting the below error.



I am using windows 10, I dont know if that possibly is causing some issue? Any help on getting this to run would be greatly appreciated.



$ npm run storybook

> start-storybook -p 9001 -c .storybook

  • You will need to migrate to latest nodejs version. Looks like you are using older version of nodejs. tecadmin.net/upgrade-nodejs-via-npm this should help.

  • You can check version compatibility node.green/#ES2018 for support for "object spread properties"
