React Meeting SDK version 2.16.0

Running into issues trying to get the [React Meeting SDK Sample](https://github.com/zoom/meetingsdk-react-sample) to work.  
On npm install meeting sdk has 30 vulnerabilities. in this case they include breaking changes if you try and run an audit fix, but for many repos you can safely ignore these warnings if they’ve been bootrapped from create react app.

**Error?**  
The main issue occurs when trying to run ‘npm start’. When executing this command you get the following error message:

opensslErrorStack: [‘error:03000086:digital envelope routines::initialization error’],  
library: ‘digital envelope routines’,  
reason: ‘unsupported’,  
code: ‘ERR\_OSSL\_EVP\_UNSUPPORTED’

**Troubleshooting Routes**  
Have tried downgrading node version (from 20.5.1 to earlier versions 19.xx, 18.xx)  
have tried running npm start with openssl legacy provider

**How To Reproduce**  
_Steps to reproduce the behavior including:_  
\*1. Clone React Meeting SDK Repo (link above)  
\*2. follow steps 1-6 included in the readme

Hi @peterprinciple  
Thanks for your patience here.  
I was able to replicate this on my end using the latest version of the app.  
I got it working just by changing one of the scripts in my package.json

```auto
"scripts": {
    "start": "react-scripts --openssl-legacy-provider start",
    "build": "react-scripts --openssl-legacy-provider build"
 
  }

```

I will report this issue internally in the meantime.  
Hope this helps
