I encountered an issue while trying to run the frontend for Robotics Academy. Attempted to run the frontend using yarn run dev after reading the Instructions for Developers. The following error occurred:

Any assistance with this issue would be appreciated.

Can you try with the instructions for Windows that are found in the user guide. The ones in the developer guide are only for Linux until we solve our remaining issues on Windows.

Also in Windows you must use WSL to run it.

Thank you for the suggestion. Since I want to contribute, I initially followed the developer guide, which provided two options for local setup: 1. Using the automatic script and 2. Using Docker.

I encountered an error when using the automatic script. While Docker allows me to run the project locally but changes, I make in the code are not reflecting. I have WSL2 installed on my Windows machine.
I'm eager to contribute and would appreciate any guidance or solutions to address these issues on Windows.

I can't help you much as I do not have Windows, but if you follow the installation guide inside WSL2 it should work.
The issues on Windows are already being worked on and hopefully close to being solved.

Thanks for your help earlier! Just an update: I’ve since switched to Linux, and everything is working fine now.
