We require that you use a certain version of Node.js to develop with Kibana. I suggest checking out [nvm](https://github.com/creationix/nvm) for managing Node versions (it's what our devs tend to use). Once you have it installed you can just run `nvm use` inside the Kibana directory to switch to the right version.

I've seen this problem happen when install yarn via Homebrew or other package managers. How have you installed yarn?

Here's some steps that may help:

```auto
$ brew uninstall yarn # or uninstall with another package manager
$ nvm install 10.15.2
$ nvm alias default 10.15.2
$ nvm use 10.15.2
$ node --version # check that this is correct, if not nvm may not be setup correctly in your shell
$ npm install -g yarn
$ yarn kbn bootstrap

```
