Component throws console error in new installation

[msorens]

I have tried building the simplest possible demo, lifting the data and template out of scroll.component.ts
from the od-vsstatic demo:

TEMPLATE

    <od-virtualscroll [vsData]="data$" [vsOptions]="options$">
      <ng-template let-item let-row="row" let-column="column">
        <span>Row: {{row}}</span><br>
        <span>Column: {{column}}</span>
        {{item}}
      </ng-template>
    </od-virtualscroll>

OBSERVABLES

  data$: Observable<number[]> = range(0, 100000).pipe(
      reduce((acc, cur) => { acc.push(cur); return acc; }, []));
  options$: Observable<IVirtualScrollOptions> =
    of({ itemWidth: 202, itemHeight: 202, numAdditionalRows: 1 });

When I run in the browser I get no rendered output and see this error in the console:

core.js:6162 ERROR TypeError: Cannot read property 'createComponent' of undefined
