Thanks guys for trying Nuxt.js

What is your version of node.js?

[darrist]

Updated nodejs from v4 to v6.x, it worked.

[frankmichel]

I am getting the same error... using Node v5.12.0 on Mac OS X 10.12

[ghprod]

mine

$ node -v
v4.6.0

Should i upgrade to v6?

[Atinux]

In the meantime upgrade to v6, I will work on make it compatible starting from node v4

[ghprod]

After upgrade to v6 LTS, then its working..

$ node -v
v6.9.1

So the solution just upgrade nodejs :+1:

closed .. Thanks

[frankmichel]

I wouldn't consider this "closed" as long as it's not working with Node v4.x (which is stated as the minimum required version for nuxt.js)

[Atinux]

You're right. I did not close this issue but the todo is on the list :)

[Atinux]

It's now fixed in the v0.8.8

@jeck5895 Nuxt needs Node.js >= 8
