Hello  
I try to install [Doks Theme](https://themes.gohugo.io/themes/doks/) but i got an error  
I got node v20.10.0  
I launch `npm create hyas@latest -- --template doks`  
After i go on `cd my-project`  
And when i launch `npm install`

this is my error

```bash

Do you know what can i do ?

I try a second “classical” way too  
`hugo new site`  
i clone the theme in `theme`  
i activate the theme,  
i make a post  
but when i launch hugo server i got a white page …
