Hi @agile karma. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:

This issue is related to a dependency conflict in Next.js 15 projects using React 19 RC (Release Candidate). The problem occurs because Next.js 15 uses a pre-release version of React 19, which is not compatible with many third-party packages that expect React 16, 17, or 18.

There are a few workarounds you can try:

Use the --legacy-peer-deps flag when installing packages:
```
npm install --legacy-peer-deps
```
However, this may lead to potential issues as noted in Github Issue #72026 (https://github.com/vercel/next.js/issues/72026).
Add an override in your package.json file:
```
"overrides": {
  "react": "$react",
  "react-dom": "$react-dom"
}
```
This solution was suggested in Github Issue #72026 (https://github.com/vercel/next.js/issues/72026) and might be safer than using --force or --legacy-peer-deps.
Downgrade React to version 18, which is compatible with more packages.

It's worth noting that this is a known issue affecting many Next.js 15 users trying to install various packages. The Next.js team is aware of the problem, but a definitive solution hasn't been implemented yet.
