I am new to javascript. I am trying to create a chrome extension by following the steps of README.md.

Everything works fine until the gulp commands. When attempting to run any of the:

gulp babel

gulp watch

gulp build

I get the error:

Follow the comments in #222. I downgraded node version to v10.18.0 and it works now
