Dependency error using npm init solid@latest

I am unable to initialize a SolidStart project using npm init solid@latest. I have tried multiple templates including basic, with-authjs, and with-tailwindcss, but all have failed with dependency errors when running npm install for the first time. Since the length of the error exceeds the character limit (2000), I'll include the error in the comments.

Create-Solid v0.5.14

Chris P Bacon•3w ago

what happens if you set the version of vite in the devdependencies list to the same version as the override?

FatFreeButterOP•3w ago

If I do that by replacing "vite": "^5.1.6" with "vite": "5.4.10", and then re-run npm install, then I get

hmm, too bad, thought I was clever for a sec. hmmm, lemme think

FatFreeButterOP•3w ago

And following the same strategy, if I replace "vinxi": "^0.4.3", with "vinxi": "^0.5.3", and re-run npm install, then I get

I am happy to share you my package json. might be a couple weeks out of date, and would not resolve the error you are reporting here, but at least you are no longer stuck If memory serves my right, vinxi 0.5.x is the upgrade to vite 6, something solid start is not yet ready for. so you'll want to keep in on 0.4.x for now

this is the complete list of deps I use atm, you'll want to cherry pick which ones you wanna keep pretty sure you could clear out all the dev-deps for instance. and many of the other deps are nice-to-haves I think ooooh, seems vinxi got updated yesterday 🥳 https://github.com/solidjs/solid-start/pull/1778

peerreynders•3w ago

Actually SolidStart went 1.1.0 yesterday https://discord.com/channels/722131463138705510/722828650503995511/1338586209206931568 and npm lists it as available 11 hours ago but it doesn't look like the with-authjs template is in sync (doesn't look like any of them have moved to 1.1.0 yet 🤨 ).

After a initializing a fresh project in package.json change

"@solidjs/start": "^1.0.11",

"@solidjs/start": "^1.0.11",

    
"@solidjs/start": "1.0.11",

    
"@solidjs/start": "1.0.11",

before running install; that will stop the complaints. (Though people are having problems with tailwind v4)

Madaxen86•3w ago

Maybe removing overrides and upgrading vinxi to ^0.5.3 helps.
