Problem with grpc running ionic project in a Macbook - ios

Question

I have an ionic app working on Android and now I need to make the iOS version.
At work, they gave me a Mac to do this.
I cloned the project from GitHub and then, I tried to install all the dependencies.
But I have a problem. When I run npm install I get:

I tried to remove node and install it with brew.
I tried to reinstall npm and reinstall that dependency called grpc but it still having problems..
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.

The version of grpc referenced there (1.10) is old enough that it does not support the version of Node you are using (10). You will need to either downgrade your Node runtime to an older version or get that library to depend on a newer version of grpc in order to use it.
