interactive learning tutorial doesn't work due to possible change in inflight

[ablosser-wvuf]

I tried this:

Going through the tutorial on /learn and getting to step 5

This happened:

errors in the inflight call due to it expecting a json input and the example providing a string input
`error: Expected type to be "inflight (event: Json?): Json?", but got "inflight (s: str?): unknown" instead
--> wing/main.w:5:20
|
5 | new cloud.Function(inflight (s: str?) => {
| /--------------------^
6 | | log("Function was called with '{s!}'");
7 | | // (type 'q.' to see the available methods)
8 | | });
| -^

`

I expected this:

I expected the example code to work as is

Is there a workaround?

if I change inflight to expect json instead I can move forward but that has a chain effect with all the future examples as 1 they still provide str instead of json and 2 things like queue push are expecting str instead of json. I can continue working around it by converting things to and from json and string but it's not very friendly for someone new trying to learn.

Anything else?
