not sure if bug or user error..

Hello, I get an error when I try to run node app.js in the terminal:
I am on Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS.

EDIT: this was caused by an older version of node.js on the Ubuntu Software store.

/local_api/node_modules/@small-tech/jsdb/lib/JSDB.js:30
  static #isBeingInstantiatedByFactoryMethod = false
         ^

@DetlefDmann Updating your node installation should help.
