Errors when attempting to install ng-bootstrap, package installation failed


I am working on an Angular app, for which I need an accordion. I attempted to install the ng-bootstrap package by running the command 'ng add @ng-bootstrap/ng-bootstrap', but every time I try running it, the installation fails. I have went to almost every similar question posed on Stack Overflow & attempted to use their solution, to no avail & its starting to get a bit frustrating. If anyone has an idea of what's causing all this bs, please let me know as your help would be greatly appreciated. Full error message below:

I attempted to run "ng update" & "npm i -g @angular/cli" to update the dependencies within my project, but nothing worked. I'm also not good with fixing dependencies at all, so Im a bit lost and am not sure what to do. 

Solution

  • I hope this commands can help you. First install:

    npm config set legacy-peer-deps true
    

    Then use below one:

    ng add @ng-bootstrap/ng-bootstrap
