I have node.js of version 18.18.0 on machine before and my react-native app was working just fine. But I recently installed lower version of node.js 14.0.0 using nvm and When I start my expo react-native app with npm start I got the below error:
> [email protected] start
> expo start
SyntaxError: Unexpected token '='

I have tried multiple solutions like:
-
Uninstalled my
nvmand node version14.0.0 -
reinstalling the node modules:
rm -rf node_modules rm package-lock.json npm install ``` -
Clearing the npm cache
npm install -g expo-cli
None of these work, help me out
