@pablodaniel03 thanks for posting the issue. I'm not supporting this project anymore so unfortunately you'll need to debug on your own.

That said just reading the issue dox.js is from https://github.com/tj/dox Perhaps you can see if there's a newer version or a different library that's compatible.

Hi @pablodaniel03 @martindsouza, the solution is rather simple, before running npm install change the package.json to resolve the dependencies issue, and changing the line for dox with the following: "dox": "^1.0.0",
Martin if I fork the repo and do a PR would you merge the change?
