How to solve chromium and certificate error while doing npm i - reactjs

Question

I have cloned the project from github and trying to run the react project in VS code.
I ran npm i and also tried npm i --force.
This is the log
npm WARN deprecated core-js#2.6.12: core-js#<3.23.3 is no longer maintained and not recommended for usage due to the number of issues. Because of the V8 engine whims, feature detection in old core-js versions could cause a slowdown up to 100x even if nothing is polyfilled. Some versions have web compatibility issues. Please, upgrade your dependencies to the actual version of core-js.
