I created a new Gatsby project following the docs, and after the build ran

npm run develop

but got this error:

I'm confused as to why the project is failing to build. I haven't touched a thing since running: npm init gatsby

I am new to Gatsby and expected it to build seeing as it's a fresh project. Has anyone encountered this error before? I read up on another question mentioning Node errors? Does Gatsby rely on a certain version of NodeJS?
