I have installed a new Laravel 8 application, and then I ran...

npm install

Afterward, I ran...

npm run dev

I get the following error.

Likely you need to install the latest version of Laravel Mix.

npm install laravel-mix@latest --save-dev

It will happen when your cache holds previous files.Clear the cache and install the npm again

npm cache clean --force

then:

npm install

npm fix audit

then:

npm run development

my problem was solved by following these steps

 npm install --g laravel-mix

npm install --g webpack-cli

Just install the latest version of laravel mix wich will support verion 8

npm install laravel-mix@latest --save-dev

package.json requires you to run mix-watch command but it doesnt work

a simple fix that worked for me is running npm run watch it worked for me laravel 8 project

If you are a windows user try this :

C:\Users{{your-username}}\AppData\Roaming\npm-cache

then :

npm cache verify
