peer dependency conflict with react

[vveewwee]

Hello there, i have a dependency conflict when installing better-docs locally on a react app, which i forced to install nevertheless, and then i modifed the react peer dependency by adding " ||^18" but the error msg stil appears (makes sense). I would prefere not to downgrade to a lower react version to solve the problem. Any other ideas ?
Would just running it with --legacy-peer-deps be the best solution ?
Thank you !
Error msg:

Found: react@18.2.0 node_modules/react react@"^18.2.0" from the root project Could not resolve dependency: peer react@"^17.0.2" from better-docs@2.7.2 node_modules/better-docs better-docs@"^2.7.2" from the root project

package-lock.json:

"node_modules/better-docs": { ... }, "peerDependencies": { "react": "^17.0.2 || ^18", "react-dom": "^17.0.2 || ^18" }

I have the same problem when running npm install --save-dev better-docs. How did you solved it?

I didnt, i kept having errors everytime i typed npm commands even though i run it with --legacy-peers-deps, nobody answered so i just removed it and then closed the issue.. Sorry, if you want me i can reopen it!

thanks for your answer, I checked and it works with react v17.0.2 but not v18.0.2. I guess there's nothing to do, we'll have to wait until they update it.

Yes, thats what the error message says, and even if you change the package-lock.json file, as posted on my first comment, it still doesnt work ! So i guess you are right, we have to wait.. ^^
