Repository typescript estree problem, the web application will not work

[ax1]

Hi, as of 2025, when cloning the repository and following the readme steps to run in locahost:5000, the js file is not generated properly (i tried installing with npm i but also with npm ci but none worked). Note: I had installed latest typescript as global package in node23 so this problem may not appear for people using one typescript version for each project.

The error is:

TypeScript error: ../../../node_modules/@types/estree/index.d.ts(137,38): Error TS2304: Cannot find name 'Omit

The quick workaround for anyone non-contributor is to disable lib check in the tsconfig.json and the js file will be correctly generated after rebuild.

{
  "compilerOptions": {
    ....
    "skipLibCheck": true
  }
    ....
}
