Node.js

Error: Cannot find module 'xxx'

Cannot Find Module

Node.js cannot resolve the required module. Common with missing dependencies or wrong paths.

Common Causes

Package not installed (npm install missing)
Wrong require path (relative vs package name)
Module is ESM but required with require()
node_modules corrupted or incomplete

Fixes

1. Install dependencies
```
npm install
```

2. Use correct import for ESM

import xxx from 'xxx';  // or dynamic: await import('xxx')

3. Clear and reinstall

rm -rf node_modules package-lock.json && npm install

Still not fixed?

• Search the exact error message on Stack Overflow or GitHub Issues
• Check the official docs for the language or tool
• Ensure your versions (Node, Python, npm, Docker) are up to date
• Try in a minimal reproduction (new project, single file)
