Fix ESLint Parsing Error: Cannot Find 'next/babel'

Solve [eslint] Parsing error: Cannot find module 'next/babel'

The "[eslint] Parsing error: Cannot find module 'next/babel'" error often occurs when ESLint encounters an issue with the Babel configuration in a Next.js project. To resolve this error, you can follow these steps:

1. Configure .eslintrc.js:

In your ESLint configuration file (usually .eslintrc.js), you should extend the appropriate ESLint configuration for NextJs. You can do this by extending the next ESLint config in your ESLint configuration file:

1 {
2   "extends": ["next/babel", "next/core-web-vitals"]
3 }

2. Check Babel Configuration:

Ensure that your Babel configuration is set up correctly. NextJs typically includes Babel configuration out of the box, but if you have a custom .babelrc or babel.config.js, make sure it's configured properly.

3. Clear ESLint Cache:

Sometimes, ESLint can have a cache that causes issues. You can try clearing the ESLint cache by running the following command:

4. Update ESLint and Related Plugins:

5. Verify Your File Extensions:

Ensure that your ESLint is correctly configured to lint the files with the appropriate extensions, such as .js, .jsx, or .ts, *.tsx, depending on your project.

After following these steps, the "[eslint] Parsing error: Cannot find module 'next/babel'" error should be resolved. If you still encounter issues, double-check your project's file structure and configurations, and make sure you're using compatible versions of NextJs, ESLint, and Babel.
