    @enderflop nice start…

    sorry, yuou can’t do require() in the browser side (dining-hall.js)
    only n the server side (node_helper)

    so the layout looks right… and you’ve got the flow correct…
    send request to node_helper
    it processes, gets data
    sends back to modulename.js
    and then it does updateDom()
    and getDom() builds the html /dom content…

          @sdetweil Hey, sorry for the late response. I accidentally took the screenshot of mmpm but the same error was coming up with dining-hall lol that’s a mistake. I’ll take a look at the PR and see how it goes, thanks!

              @enderflop cool

              key here is module name = foldername = filename = register name
              and node_helper.js has to be in the same folder
