Failed to compile after initial install - any suggestions?

Hi there!

I downloaded the project files. Guil says to run npm install on the gif-search folder. There are several of these, but I installed on:

1-fetching-data-with-react-fetch-api/gif-search

I cannot compile when I run 'npm start' from file location.

Here is my terminal error message: Failed to compile.

Error in ./src/index.js Module build failed: Error: Failed to load plugin flowtype: Cannot find module 'eslint-plugin-flowtype' Referenced from: /Users/macuser/Documents/tree house/data-fetching-react/1-fetching-data-with-fetch-api/gif-search/node_modules/react-scripts/.eslintrc at Array.forEach (native) at Array.reduceRight (native) @ multi main

Here is my localhost: 3000 error message: Failed to compile.

Error in ./src/index.js Module build failed: Error: Failed to load plugin flowtype: Cannot find module 'eslint-plugin-flowtype' Referenced from: /Users/macuser/Documents/tree house/data-fetching-react/1-fetching-data-with-fetch-api/gif-search/node_modules/react-scripts/.eslintrc at Array.forEach (native) at Array.reduceRight (native) @ multi main

Can someone suggest a fix for this? Something to install, or some file content to change?

Thanks a lot! I'm excited to get started on this project
