Weird, never seen that before. It might be some dev dependency change in some minor release. Try to reinstall node_modules with exact dependency versions
I'm having issues following the dev setup: Maybe a bundler issue? I am able to drop the min from grapes.min.js in the index.html file and it works. However, if I build the grapes.js output, then this error returns.
