Whenever I try to run the command "jsdoc -c jsdoc.json" in my terminal I receive the following error:

...node_nodules\better-docs\typescript\type-converter.js:45
let name = node.name?.escapedText
^

My jsdoc.json file looks like this:

{ "opts": { "template": "./node_modules/better-docs" }, "tags": { "allowUnknownTags": true }, "plugins": [ "./node_modules/better-docs/typescript", "./node_modules/better-docs/component", "./node_modules/better-docs/typedef-import", "plugins/markdown" ], "source": { "includePattern": "\\.(jsx|js|ts|tsx)$", "include": ["./src"], "exclude": ["./docs", "./node_modules"], "excludePattern": "(node_modules/|docs)" } }

I'm using:

jsdoc: ^3.6.7,
better-docs: ^2.7.2,
react: ^17.0.2,
typescript: ^4.6.3

I'm also using v12.20.0 of node.

[rangerch]

different is,
typescript: ^4.7.4
node: 12.21.0

update node version to 16 can solve this problem!
