SyntaxError: Unexpected token '}'

Error message

SyntaxError: Unexpected token '}'

What broke

The error occurs when the JavaScript interpreter encounters a '}' that does not match an opening '{'. This can happen due to missing or extra braces in your code structure.

Why it broke

It broke because the code's syntax is incorrect, leading to a mismatch in the number of opening and closing braces. This often results from copy-pasting code or editing without careful attention to the structure.

How to fix

To fix this, carefully review your code and ensure that every opening brace '{' has a corresponding closing brace '}'. You can also use an IDE or text editor that highlights matching braces to help identify the issue.

Code fix

function example() { console.log('Hello, World!'); }
