Uncaught ReferenceError: $ is not defined at script.min.js:1?

I am new to Hugo and was trying to use this theme while following their quick start guide.

I installed hugo-extended using choco command on windows. After that, I followed instructions on this page that is I went to the themes folder and git cloned this project.

After that, I ran hugo new posts/my-first-post.md. And then I ran hugo server -D and then I see this error

Also this is my config.toml if it makes any difference.

baseURL = "http://example.org/"
languageCode = "en-us"
title = "My New Hugo Site"
theme = "liva-hugo"

I just copied your example site folder and now it works. Closing the issue.
