ViewsIs it possible to import JS code from a HTML file?
This is a continuation of my efforts to troubleshoot the problems shown here where I am trying to understand how to run a Node.js application which the author is saying that it can be run straight from the webserver (ES6 ?)
As you can see I am receiving some errors from my browser
After diving into the sources of the app (which might be too much for my level) I am seeing this line
import editorTemplate from './templates/editorTemplate.html'
and the file in question is indeed a text/html file and there is nothing to import from there
The above strange (to me) import is attempted here
https://github.com/SVG-Edit/svgedit/blob/master/src/editor/EditorStartup.js
Is this a mistake ?

The key problem is that you are attempting to load the raw src files. They are not runnable JS files. You will need to serve the bundled distribution files that were output by the project's build pipeline.
In particular, the project is using rollup, and has configured it to use the rollup-plugin-html. It will inline the html as a string in the script.
