Error compiling ethercalc makefile

[AlejandroDagobah]

Hi when i try to compile ethercalc with Makefile , it crashes compleatly, when i create a new spreadsheet it keeps loading forever, i havent change SocialCalc at all but thats my intention.

this is the console history after i run the 'make' command:

PC@DESKTOP-7P996G3 MINGW64 ~/AppData/Roaming/npm/node_modules/ethercalc (master)
$ make
npm i --dev

thanks for the help

Looks like a problem with uglify-js - Maybe a version issue. I would try using a different version.

This looks like the error:

C:\Users\PC\AppData\Roaming\npm\node_modules\ethercalc\node_modules\uglify-js\tools\node.js:42
sys.error("WARN: " + txt);

TypeError: sys.error is not a function

hope this helps.
