Just checking, did the npm install succeed?

Thanks,

Hey @tommy , yes the npm install does succeed with the exception of a few WARN messages (a bit different than what Brendon is seeing:

npm WARN deprecated chokidar@2.1.8: Chokidar 2 will break on node v14+. Upgrade to chokidar 3 with 15x less dependencies.

npm WARN websdk-local@1.9.9 No repository field.

Have only included the WARN messages here.

Thanks @mattmcd , @brendonp ,

I was able to reproduce this error.

We will fix this as soon as we can.

In the meantime, you can use our Angular, React, or Vue sample apps:

Hi Tommy, we are facing the same issue, may I know is this issue resovle?

#10

@thirtysevenedu just fyi, those other sample apps Tommy shared were actually quite informative and contained everything the regular sample app does for getting functionality to work. Would recommend checking those out!

#11

Same problem. the webpack cli is old. Change to the latest and it works.

#12

Hey @estim8d,

You can also try our latest version, 2.0.1 to see if that resolves your issue.

Thanks,
Max
