can't build the frontend about lit

[windmaple]

Ended up using gunicorn to run it and it worked. Not sure why.

Btw, I also tried the Dockerfile and it failed w/ the same error. So I don't think the issue is with my setup.

What version of TypeScript are you using? If its 4.7, looks like you could downgrade to 4.6, or update your ts-node package version as you mentioned (https://stackoverflow.com/questions/72488958/false-expression-non-string-value-passed-to-ts-resolvetypereferencedirective)

Downgraded TS to 4.6.4 and ts-node to 10.8.1. Unfortunately it didn't help. Very strange.

(lit-nlp) windmaple@windmaple:~/Desktop/lit-main$ tsc -v
Version 4.6.4
(lit-nlp) windmaple@windmaple:~/Desktop/lit-main$ cat package.json 
{
  "dependencies": {
    "ts-loader": "^9.3.1",
    "ts-node": "^10.8.1",
    "ts-node-dev": "^2.0.0",
    "typescript": "^4.6.4"
  }
}

Error: Debug Failure. False expression: Non-string value passed to `ts.resolveTypeReferenceDirective`, likely by a wrapping package working with an outdated `resolveTypeReferenceDirectives` signature. This is probably not a problem in TS itself.
