Hi! I found the same issue running the following commands:

# install the cli app
npx proton-native-cli init my-app
# move to your project directory
cd my-app

# run your app
npm run start
# OR to run with hot reloading
npm run dev

Source: Proton Native - Quickstart

> babel-node index.js

internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:1188
  return process.dlopen(module, path.toNamespacedPath(filename));
                 ^
