Answer 1

I see a few problems with your app.

1. you're referencing HelloWorld.brs from pkg:/source, but the correct path is pkg:/components/helloworld.brs.

2. You shouldn't call the init function yourself. This is something the Roku platform will call for you whenever a new instance of your HelloWorld component is initialized. Also...it's invalid syntax to run top-level code like this. Code statements are only valid inside function bodies.

3. LabelNode is not a valid component type. Did you mean Label?

Here's a screenshot after I fixed these 3 problems:

I highly recommend installing Visual Studio Code (VSCode) and the BrightScript Language extension for VSCode. Many of these types of errors will be flagged during development time.
