Even after "npm init", "npm i fs" and adding "type": "module" I keep getting "Cannot use import statement outside a module". Any idea please ?

I don't know if I did it right. It is just a JS project (dir with css, html and js files) that I tried to turn into node.js so I can use fs with chrome (live server extension of vs code)

let data = fs.readFileSync('./list.json')
console.log(data)

let fs = require('fs')
