This is not an error, this is a warning.

It says that the dependency fsevents wants a darwin operating system, but you are running on a Windows (win32 OS) machine.

It is only a warning because it is just an optional dependency for mac users.

The warning may disapear if you update NPM, though.

More details in this github issue.
