Ionic Framework Version
v8.x
Current Behavior
When starting a new blank project with ionic start for the React framework, I get a dependency error:
$ ionic start
...
> npm i --save -E @capacitor/haptics @capacitor/app @capacitor/keyboard @capacitor/status-bar
npm error code ERESOLVE
npm error ERESOLVE unable to resolve dependency tree
npm error
npm error While resolving: [email protected]
npm error Found: @capacitor/[email protected]
npm error node_modules/@capacitor/core
npm error @capacitor/core@"6.2.1" from the root project
npm error
npm error Could not resolve dependency:
npm error peer @capacitor/core@">=7.0.0" from @capacitor/[email protected]
npm error node_modules/@capacitor/haptics
npm error @capacitor/haptics@"*" from the root project
npm error
npm error Fix the upstream dependency conflict, or retry
npm error this command with --force or --legacy-peer-deps
npm error to accept an incorrect (and potentially broken) dependency resolution.

[ERROR] An error occurred while running subprocess npm.
npm i --save -E @capacitor/haptics @capacitor/app @capacitor/keyboard @capacitor... exited with exit code 1.
Re-running this command with the --verbose flag may provide more information.
...I think the problem is that capacitor/core is not yet available in Version 7.0.0. Anyway, a way to install the packages is using the --legacy-peer-deps option as suggested in the error message.
Expected Behavior
There should not be any dependency error.
Steps to Reproduce
- Install ionic as per the official docs
- Start a new project with
ionic start- Don't use the "app creation wizard" (say "n")
- Choose the "React" framework
- Add a project name
- Choose the "blank" starter template
