A quick fix would be to pin NodeJS to an higher version than 12 in frontend/dockerfile (I know this is quite "generic", but even pinning to latest fixed the issue)

I confirm the bug AND the proposed solution. Thanks @giupo

For those of you who don't speak simple docker like myself - to break down guipo's fix:

1. in your /Stormspotter/frondend/dockerfile file modify the first line to become From node:latest
2. Save the changes
3. Rebuild the docker container with docker-compose up --build
4. The frontend should now be working and accessible at http://localhost:90901

Thanks @giupo
