      Hello guys, I m making my first mirror and when I add a module to the config file it stops working, but the orignal code works perfectly fine, and a new module code makes it think there is a error even when it is perfectly fine. I tried to use the inbuilt checker and it is worse. It was giving me errors on things like clock and calander and wanting me to remove all the modules. Is there any way I can put the modules? Thanks!

        @mintpizza read the links in my signature below

        any syntax error can really generate a lot of errors.

        I would need to see the output of
        npm run config:check
        to help more.

          @sdetweil the output tells that clock, calander or etc module lines are unknown or not required

                      @mintpizza said in Config file not found:

                      	modules:  
                      

                      should be

                      	modules:  [
                      

                      As a start.

                      The "E" in "Javascript" stands for "Easy"
