''darwin-arm64v8' binaries cannot be used on the 'darwin-x64' platform

I am trying to deploy functions to firebase using my Mac M1, for which it was required to do an npm install to install packages in node_modules/. I am getting this error:

Error: 'darwin-arm64v8' binaries cannot be used on the 'darwin-x64' platform. Please remove the 'node_modules/sharp' directory and run 'npm install' on the 'darwin-x64' platform.

My answer is not related to deploying functions to firebase, but I had that exact same error:

Error: 'darwin-x64' binaries cannot be used on the 'darwin-arm64v8' platform. Please remove the 'node_modules/sharp' directory and run 'npm install' on the 'darwin-arm64v8' platform.

when I tried to run a project with a mac M1 using a version of node that was incompatible.

I tried to run the project with version 16 when the project actually require version <=14.

So if anyone has this problem might be worth checking the node version

Solution 2:[2]

For me, all I had to do was:

brew reinstall vips

then do a clean install of the project.

Solution 3:[3]

For some reason I got it fixed with removing node_modules and installing them again.

Error: 'darwin-x64' binaries cannot be used on the 'darwin-arm64v8' platform. 
  Please remove the 'node_modules/sharp' directory and run 'npm install' on the 
  'darwin-arm64v8' platform.
