Hi, I'm get this error message when I try to execute fetch. Any ideas for a fix? Thanks

Its because a html page cannot access file using file:///Users, its done for users security so that websites don't access any other personal / system files

create a http server and run the application on it

Alternatively, you can install python 3

1. cd into the main project directory
2. python -m http.server or python3 -m http.server

you will get a message like Serving HTTP on 0.0.0.0 port 8000 (http://0.0.0.0:8000/) ... open that link and you are good to go
