Did you attempt to install npm dependencies, as suggested in the answer to the issue you created here? https://github.com/overhangio/tutor/issues/337#issuecomment-638007062

To do so you should run: tutor local run lms npm install (or tutor dev run lms npm install if you are running into this in development)

I ran into a similar problem and this solution worked for me. I made this PR because I think this step should be documented.
