It works. There are no compatibility issues. You've done something wrong, but I'm not sure what.

Please post the entire compilation trace - not just the error.

Hiya you need to upgrade to the latest Arduino IDE (at least version 1.8.5)!

the CircuitPlaygroundExpress is not really Arduino Compatible.
And as far as I can see it does not claim to be.
