I am trying to run gatsby develop in order to start the development server but I am getting the following error:

There was a problem loading the local develop command. Gatsby may not be installed in your site's "node_modules" directory. Perhaps you need to run "npm install"? You might need to delete your "package-lock.json" as well.

This is the project that I am working on: https://github.com/andreiprv/andyprv-blog

Cloned from this repo: https://github.com/alxshelepenok/gatsby-starter-lumen

It is probably a dependency issue, but I don't have the know-how to figure out how to solve it. After I started the project with gatsby new etc, I've got the following errors:

I tried to uninstall and install gatsby again using npm uninstall --save gatsby && npm install --save gatsby

but it failed with the following errors

Thank you in advance!

Did the following, ran npm install --legacy-peer-deps

Then hit another error when running gatsby develop :

Node Sass does not yet support your current environment: OS X 64-bit with Unsupported runtime (88)
For more information on which environments are supported please see:
https://github.com/sass/node-sass/releases/tag/v4.14.1
error undefined failed

Fixed the above by downgrading node to v14.15.1. After that I needed to run npm rebuild node-sass

I've resolved this issue by running yarn install instead of npm install

Not sure if this may be related, I had a similar issue, but mine was caused by a mismatch dependency between my node version and the version some library was using, so after changing to another version it worked for me.

I noticed that there was an error by running npm install --loglevel verbose

see if you can get additional information.
