    Project mention: Show HN: Node.js video tutorials where you can edit and run the code | news.ycombinator.com | 2025-04-23

    Something seems to be broken in the Imba website for me in both FF and Chrome for MacOS.

    When I go to the main website: https://imba.io/

    Then click on the "Demo" button

    I get taken to the "Playground": https://imba.io/try/examples/apps/playground/app.imba

    There is no code on the page but the preview seems to work. Same thing with all of the other examples. They work in the Preview panel, but no code loads at all.

    Looking in the dev console I see a few errors:

       GET https://imba.io/monaco/min/vs/loader.js HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found
