Lesson 9 Error HH9

[chopperttt]

I dont know how, all of a sudden, at timestamp 15:05:33 during compile, I got this error:

Error HH9: Error while loading Hardhat's configuration.

You probably tried to import the "hardhat" module from your config or a file imported from it.
This is not possible, as Hardhat can't be initialized while its config is being defined.

Remove the line
const { ethers } = require("hardhat");

Also: Check your hardhat.config file to see if typo in it. Like account instead of accounts

otherwise, post your repo link to get up or post in issue. It's hard to analyze just by error description.

I found it! accidentally imported const {network} = require("hardhat") in hardhat.config. silly of me.

thanks so much!
