[ettolo]

After creating a new app with tns create answering the qustion to get the sidedrawer TypeScript template,, I get this error when trying tns_preview

"Preparing project...
D:\my_path\node_modules\webpack-cli\bin\cli.js:93
Error: The entry module app specified in D:\my_path\src/package.json doesn't exist!"

Running Nativescript 7.0.11 and although not using the Angular template, the same error occurs.

** Indicates my comment or the step performing

** Error: The entry module app specified in .\xxx\src\package.json ** Which is a bit of a misnomer since no such file exists in the src director, ** let alone an entry module tag.

** Issue: package.json is one level up in the directory - .\xxx\package.json
