Esprima error 404 Not Found in npm install

Question

I'm trying to install all dependencies in my react project, but when I run npm install I'm getting some errors related to esprima:

npm ERR! 404 Not Found - GET https://codeload.github.com/ariya/esprima/legacy.tar.gz/master
npm ERR! npm ERR! 404 
npm ERR! npm ERR! 404  'esprima@https://github.com/ariya/esprima/tarball/master' is not in the npm registry.

npm ERR! npm ERR! 404 
npm ERR! npm ERR! 404 Note that you can also install from a

Did anyone experience this error?

I was able to resolve this issue after downgrade my npm version from 7.14.0 to v6.14.13. It may not be the best solution, but it was the only way I could get rid of this problem.
