'alpha' is not exported from '@mui/system'


Please i'm getting this error from @mui/material library, I have checked the package.json of the mui/system and it has alpha exported in it.

./node_modules/@mui/material/styles/index.js
 Attempted import error: 'alpha' is not exported from '@mui/system'.

Here's the package.json of the application

My node version is v12.22.8


Solution

  • I think the problem is that you have mixed Material UI version 4 and 5 libraries and they are incompatible with each other. Try replacing @material-ui/core with @mui/core and just remove @material-ui/icons import as you already have @mui/icons-material and use the latest versions of all @mui/* imports.

    Clear node_modules before installing dependencies again, to make sure everything is in order and old dependency versions are removed.

    EDIT: what turned out to be necessary to solve it in the end - install node v12.22.7, remove node_modules, clean yarn cache and reinstall dependencies
