Errors access to XMLHTTPrequest and GET "filename" ERR_FAILED

Hey,

Everything was working fine before babel. Nothing is getting rendered now. Here is a picture of the errors. https://ibb.co/N2mQVfK

I'm running this on windows.

If you want to check my code here it is:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <title>Scoreboard</title>
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="./app.css" />
  </head>

  <body>
    <div id="root"></div>
    <script crossorigin src="https://unpkg.com/react@16/umd/react.development.js"></script>
    <script crossorigin src="https://unpkg.com/react-dom@16/umd/react-dom.development.js"></script>
    <script src="https://unpkg.com/babel-standalone@6/babel.min.js"></script>
    <script type="text/babel" src="./app.js"></script>
  </body>
</html>
const title = <h1>My first React Element!</h1>;
const desc = <p>I just learned this stuff.</p>;

const header = React.createElement(
    'header',
    null,
    title,
    desc
);

ReactDOM.render(
    header,
    document.getElementById('root')
);

Hi, I was getting the same error, when I started the live server in VS Code (Clicking the GoLive button in the bottom right), this resolved.
