Pull Request: Fix Create React App v4 + Node.js 17+/20 error
Problem
Running the project with Node.js 17 or higher caused the following error:
This is due to
react-scripts@4.0.3(Webpack 4) using legacy crypto algorithms that are blocked in OpenSSL 3, which ships with Node 17+.Fix
Added the
--openssl-legacy-providerflag to thestartandbuildscripts inpackage.jsonto allow legacy crypto providers and restore compatibility with Node.js 17–20.Changes
"scripts": { - "start": "react-scripts start", - "build": "react-scripts build", + "start": "react-scripts start --openssl-legacy-provider", + "build": "react-scripts build --openssl-legacy-provider", "test": "react-scripts test", "eject": "react-scripts eject" },Also made some ui changes
