I have cloned the project and trying to run it for the first time in my system (Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS) with npm serve
, but I am getting the following error:
events.js:174
throw er; // Unhandled 'error' event
^

I have looked up the solution here & here, but my /etc/sysctl.conf
has already fs.inotify.max_user_watches=524288
added in its last line. I have read that 524,288 is the maximum number of files that can be watched. So I am completely clueless on how to listen to my files i.e run my project.
How can I run this?
