Hello.

const opts = dashdash.parse({options: options});
^
TypeError: Cannot read property 'parse' of undefined

I use the library successfully before.
what is the problem?

Your stacktrace tells you that the problem is in your code, not in this library:

const opts = dashdash.parse({options: options});

We'd need to see some or all of FirstExperiment.ts to attempt to help. It is possible this has issues with commonjs modules and/or TypeScript usage. I haven't worked with those much.
