Got error when trying to install @webex/widgets #214
Description
I am trying to install the package from the following command,
npm i @webex/widgets
It shows the package installed successfully.
But when importing the WebexMeetingsWidget component into the app.js it throws almost 82 errors.
I am using the React application with react^18.2.0

I have a similar problem, when a try to run: npx install-peerdeps @webex/widgets
I receive this result:
I think the problem is the react version. @webex/widgets are trying to install react 17, but I already using react 18.
And when I try to run: npm i @webex/widgets
I receive this result, and the react version error becomes more evident:

Hey folks. Thanks for reporting these issues and providing feedback. We'll get someone to look into this soon.
@Kesari3008 do any of these errors seem familiar and similar to what we observed as we tried to upgrade our tooling?

@sreenara Yes we have seen a similar error while upgrading our tooling but only once. Hence I cannot say for sure why it happens. One possible reason can be mismatch of React version as Widgets currently uses React 17. One way to resolve this is I remember that I installed querystring, crypto, os-browserify modules to resolve these polyfill errors. As a workaround, that's something which can be tried. In the meantime, I will check try this out to on my end again and find it's proper solution.

@Bhavik1363 @Junior743 @carrubbasamuel are you'll able to use React 17.x as a workaround for now? We will be working towards upgrading widgets to React 18 in the future.
