“Type 'EventEmitter' is not generic” ERROR in angular

Question

I\'m currently following a tutorial and the tutorial is making use of EventEmitter. The code goes like this

@Output() ratingClicked: EventEmitter<         


        

Answer 1

When using Visual Studio Code, The IDE automatically imports EventEmitter from Node.js.

import { EventEmitter } from "events";

In this case you'll have to manually change it to angular core module

import { EventEmitter } from "@angular/core";
