Just tried installing and getting this error. 
web15 % npm i --save-exact next@rc react@rc react-dom@rc
npm error code ERESOLVE
npm error ERESOLVE unable to resolve dependency tree
npm error
npm error While resolving: web15@1.0.0
npm error Found: react@19.0.0-rc-58af67a8f8-20240628
npm error node_modules/react
npm error   react@"19.0.0-rc-58af67a8f8-20240628" from the root project
npm error
npm error Could not resolve dependency:
npm error peer react@"19.0.0-rc-f994737d14-20240522" from next@15.0.0-rc.0
npm error node_modules/next
npm error   next@"15.0.0-rc.0" from the root project
npm error
npm error Fix the upstream dependency conflict, or retry
npm error this command with --force or --legacy-peer-deps
npm error to accept an incorrect (and potentially broken) dependency resolution.

I've tried adding a .npmrc file with the legacy-peer-deps=true flag but still not working.

Not sure if this will build the project in terms of once I get coding but I was able to at least get the deps installed by adding this to my package.json.

    "@types/react": "npm:types-react@rc",
    "@types/react-dom": "npm:types-react-dom@rc",
