It seems the reason for this is this line in package.json:

"types": "dist/types/index.d.ts",

After removing that property completely I got

[ ERROR ]  package.json error
           package.json "types" property is required when generating a
           distribution. Recommended entry d.ts file is:
           dist/types/components.d.ts

So I changed types in package.json to

"types": "dist/types/components.d.ts",

as recommended and now I can start the dev server with no error.

Will suggest that change for the repo package.json and create a PR.
