Question:
So, I am making a Trivia App that you will be able to make your own question sets in HTML/CSS/JS, I am planning on putting my question set data into a JSON file, but when I try and fetch and parse the data in my JavaScript file it throws this error →
Error: Cannot parse given Error objecthttps://eed202be-ef54-466b-9406-bb5c50e27923-00-34vd7zc7djfyh.spock.replit.dev/__replco/static/devtools/devtools.js:57
