Import error in the frontend for a Reach dApp

General
1

I’m following along in the “Ten Days of Blockchain” demo to which “meowking” referred me, and I’m running into a problem with “Day 2”:

When I try to run the “Day 2” version, I get a JavaScript error on the very first import in index.mjs:

import { loadStdLib } from '@reach-sh/stdlib';

gives me:

file:///app/index.mjs:1
import { loadStdLib } from '@reach-sh/stdlib';
         ^^^^^^^^^^
SyntaxError: Named export 'loadStdLib' not found. The requested module '@reach-sh/stdlib' is a CommonJS module, which may not support all module.exports as named exports.
CommonJS modules can always be imported via the default export, for example using:

import pkg from '@reach-sh/stdlib';
const { loadStdLib } = pkg;

    at ModuleJob._instantiate (internal/modules/esm/module_job.js:104:21)
    at async ModuleJob.run (internal/modules/esm/module_job.js:149:5)
    at async Loader.import (internal/modules/esm/loader.js:177:24)
    at async Object.loadESM (internal/process/esm_loader.js:68:5)

I do recall seeing and dismissing a message of some sort about “accessing a network drive.”

Anybody here have idea what went wrong?

(Cross-posted to the “Days of Blockchain” discussion on Discord, but Discord just went unresponsive on me.)

****** Additional information:
I will note that according to 3 separate “find” commands issued from a sudo’d command line on my Mac there is nothing in the local file system called “@reach-sh” or “stdlib,” nor anything with a “.mjs” extension that’s even remotely close to “ETH.mjs,” “ALGO.mjs,” or “loader.mjs.” Nor does there appear to be an “npm” command.

If you don’t have the npm command, it most likely mean that you did not install nodejs properly.
I strongly recommend using HomeBrew (brew.sh - to install first) to install nodejs on macOS:

brew install node

Then you need to setup your node project: npm init in the colder with index.mjs.
Then, install the dependency npm instal ....
And finally only run node index.mjs.

Ms. Hodge’s video series doesn’t say anything about “nodejs,” and the Reach docs (specifically the “frontends” page) says that if you’re launching via “./reach run,” Reach itself will handle finding and installing the “@reach/stdlib” itself.

You’re not going to believe this one:

It turned out to be a typo. Which was spotted a little over an hour after I joined the Reach community on Reddit, and posted the problem there.

It’s not “loadStdLib,” with the second “L” capitalized. It’s “loadStdlib.”
