I am trying to run canvas-datagrid in my angular project and have been observing this error even after installing it in different ways like deleting node_modules, package.lock.json etc.,

It would be awesome , if someone could show me the way to proceed with the same?

Thanks
Solution

  • This means you're using a newer version of the package not compatible with your old version of angular.

    I tried to install this package on an app on angular 8 and ran into this issue. I went back to version 0.22.12 of the package and the issue is gone.
