At this point of the course I was following the typing out of this code.

async function updateAbi() {
 const raffle = await ethers.getContract("Raffle")
 fs.writeFileSync(
 FRONTEND_ABI_FILE,
 raffle.interface.format(ethers.utils.FormatTypes.json)

As the last line is getting typed out, the video quickly cuts to the Ethers docs. At the same time, VScode suggests I replace json with JSON by hitting Enter. I do so (in VScode we trust).

I run yarn hardhat node to produce our .json files. I get the following error:

TypeError: The "data" argument must be of type string or an instance of Buffer, TypedArray, or DataView. Received an instance of Array
 at Object.writeFileSync (node:fs:2163:5)

I try adding .toString() on the end. It goes through but the abi.json looks all weird and unformatted. Nope, next.
After tinkering around and googling for like 15 minutes, while looking at the Ethers docs I try putting it back to lowercase .json. It goes through and my abi.json looks beauuutiful!!

Just a heads-up for anyone potentially searching the Discussions for this error (I didn't find any); might save them some time and frustration, it made my eyes roll how a VScode suggestion made the code break like this lol.

Take note when VScode suggests you something. You could overlook it and it can break your code later.
