“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

In visual studio code when your try to listen to user click event from your html file of the component

@Output() event: EventEmitter = new EventEmitter();

it automatically import this to the component import { EventEmitter } from '@angular/event' instead of import { EventEmitter } from '@angular/core'.
