🤖 AI-Generated Preliminary Analysis:

The error you are encountering is due to a mismatch in the TypeScript tsconfig.json settings. Specifically, the module option must be set to NodeNext when the moduleResolution option is set to NodeNext. Here are the steps to resolve this issue:

1. Open the tsconfig.json file in your project directory.

2. Update the compilerOptions to ensure that both module and moduleResolution are set to NodeNext. Your tsconfig.json should look something like this:

   {
     "compilerOptions": {
       "target": "ES6",
       "module": "NodeNext",
       "moduleResolution": "NodeNext",
       "outDir": "./dist",
       "rootDir": "./src",
       "strict": true,
       "esModuleInterop": true,
       "skipLibCheck": true,
       "forceConsistentCasingInFileNames": true
     }
   }

3. Save the tsconfig.json file and try rebuilding your project.

This should resolve the error you are seeing. For further information, you can refer to the TypeScript documentation on module resolution options.

If you continue to encounter issues, please provide additional details or error messages, and I can assist you further.

Hi @ridomin. I tried the latest release and pre-release versions but couldn't reproduce the issue. Could you please provide the node version and Teams Toolkit version you're using to help us identify the problem? Thank you.

Hello @ridomin, I have tested the latest pre-release and release versions of Teams Toolkit, but I was unable to reproduce the issue you mentioned. Could you please provide details about your runtime environment, including your Node.js version and Teams Toolkit version?

• To check your Node.js version, you can run the following command in Windows PowerShell: node -v

• You can find the Teams Toolkit version in the Extensions view of Visual Studio Code.

Thank you!
