Additional context
Same packages of different versions are utilised in the superset main folder and superset-frontend folder. This issue needs to be fixed.
Hello @sumitra19jha thanks for submitting this issue. Would you mind providing more info concerning the error that you are seeing?
@geido Snapshot added
I have resolved the above issue on my local system by removing package conflicts in the superset-frontend folder. During installation from scratch in order to remove the above error, I have to run npm install in a superset-frontend folder and then the dashboard appears. The superset-frontend folder shows logs that the package in the parent folder and one used there don't have the same version.
Can I create the PR making sure that common packages across multiple folders have same version?
