Blank bundle.js

[raptats]

I tried to compile the demos on the source code but when I go to cmd to browserify the js file, it returns with an error saying that a module is missing but completes the bundling with a blank bundle.js.. Could someone help me with resolving this matter? Thanks!

Which module does it say is missing? Please paste the error message you're getting, the browserify command you're running, and your code.

I apologise for the long post in advance. I included all I input in the cmd just in case I overlooked something.

I browserified the example browser-seed.js so then I can include it to my html file but the bundle.js is empty. I am under the impression that bundle.js should contain the require calls for the project. Thanks for your help

I have just resolved this error with having npm init and installing browserify-versionify on npm. Thanks for looking into it. Cheers!
