E2002 error

Unknown type name

area: types (x2xxx)
fails the build: yes
in plain Lua files: reported as W2002

A type annotation names a type that doesn't exist: a typo, a type declared in another module that isn't imported, or a type only some flavors have. Check the spelling, or bring the type in with import type Name from "./module".
