Just follow these Build Packages & Samples instructions in main page README.

I think it might be a good action to adjust the samples documentation to prevent people from getting this error.

I had the same issue (I didn't with previous versions). I had to npm login and then delete .nvmrc and package-lock.json files. Then "npm install" worked.

The main doc: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftteams/platform/apps-in-teams-meetings/teams-live-share-quick-start is then broken and should be fixed.

#200 will fix this issue hopefully. Thanks for calling this out! Some references to a private npm feed got included in our sample package-lock files by accident and resetting the package-lock files exposed some other minor issues as well. Hopefully we'll get this merged soon :)
