Cannot get material-ui datepicker to work

For some reason, I cannot get the material-ui datepicker to work. Every time the datepicker is rendered in React, the following error is thrown:

RangeError: Format string contains an unescaped latin alphabet character n

I have created a stackblitz with just the datepicker (https://stackblitz.com/edit/react-6ma6xd?embed=1&file=index.js) and even there the error shows up. What am I doing wrong? I think I followed all the instructions from the installation guide.
