Cdktf encountered an error while synthesizing

Terraform CDK for Terraform
1

I am getting started with cdktf and using this example https://github.com/hashicorp/terraform-cdk/tree/main/examples/typescript/google

I am getting the following error. Any hints on what would be causing it?

Can you provide a bit more context? what commands did you run after cloning the repository to get to this error message as Iā€™m unable to replicate it?
