SyntaxError: Unexpected token *

[wratke]

I've installed the foundation cli without any errors (with this command: npm install --global foundation-cli), but when I try to run foundation I get the following error. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling foundation cli but I always get the same error when I try to run foundation.

C:\Users...\AppData\Roaming\npm\node_modules\foundation-cli\node_modules\string-kit\lib\format.js:521
base = round( n / ( 1000 ** logDiv3 ) , roundStep[ logMod ] ) ;
^

Hi, which Node.js version do you use?
Can you check if a .babelrc file exists and provide more info about the configuration files?

Same here:

λ foundation new --framework emails

base = round( n / ( 1000 ** logDiv3 ) , roundStep[ logMod ] ) ;

λ npm -v

λ node -v
v10.5.0

I have version 6.11.3 of node.js installed. Am I looking for the .babelrc in the foundation cli files, or in the node.js installation? If you let me know where to look I can see if it exists.

[DanielRuf]

Please try Node.js 8 or 10.

Other things don't work with Node.js 8 or 10 :( I also keep getting:
C:\Users\angel\AppData\Roaming\npm\node_modules\foundation-cli\node_modules\string-kit\lib\format.js:624
base = round( n / ( 1000 ** logDiv3 ) , roundStep[ logMod ] ) ;

with any foundation-cli command :(

[DanielRuf]

Did you upgrade Node.js and npm and reinstall the dependencies?

[AlexMarcoDAngelo]

Yes, I did, now the build fsils

[DanielRuf]

Please provide more info what exactly fails and what the error message is now.
