Cannot find module 'prettier'

I updated all packages but still getting this error after running npm run serve:

Module build failed (from ./node_modules/eslint-loader/index.js): Error: Cannot find module 'prettier' Occurred while linting /home

My package.json

**"@vue/eslint-config-prettier": "^5.0.0",** is listed in the dependencies. How to fix this issue? (I'm using VSCODE on Ubuntu)

I tried multiple times deleting package-lock.json and node_modules and running npm install afterwards. Nothing fixes it - even updating all packages globally.

Prettier is a peer dependency of @vue/eslint-config-prettier so you need to add it to your own dependencies:

npm install --save-dev prettier
