Hello @ aishah ,

It seems likely that this is just something messed up with your local dev environment.

Some things I might try:

1. wiping away node_modules and trying again
2. different version of npm / node
3. npm cache clean
4. Delete your $HOME/.node-gyp directory

If you google around for "npm issues" and "node-gyp" there are lots of GH issues with similar problems, that might provide help debugging and resolving this.

Hope this works!!
