Advanced React APIs Workshop issue

[jgorombey1004]

When I try npm start in the advanced react apis workshop I get the following error. NOTE: You can see in the fist line where I ran npm install -g @epic-web/workshop-app (I've ran that command as admin, etc.).

Thanks for reporting this. We're looking into it now, and we're also going to improve the startup error so it explains what failed and what to try next.

Any movement on this?

My apologies! This caught me at a busy time with family. I'll try to get something for you to test out today.

Hello, could you try this?

npx epicshop@latest update

If that doesn't work, then you can do it the longer way:

git pull
npm install

Then try running npm start again and it should work this time. If not, please copy/paste the error you get and I'll keep digging!

Sorry, the problem is I can't reproduce this issue myself so I'm kind of fixing in the dark here. But I'm pretty sure this should be fixed.

`npx ***@***.*** update` worked! Thanks!
