Making changes to webpack.config file? #81
-
|
Hi, I've run into an issue - I need to use the Buffer package in my react app, however Webpack 5 doesn't include it. The solution has been to manually include this by editing the webpack.config.js file within the node packages folder, following this guide here. The solution work, however it of course only works locally. I'm stuck as to how I can make the same changes for the version that is deployed on Vercel. Any advice on how I can fix this? |

Not my area of expertise however it seems like this is a common issue around the web for Webpack 5 users. Suggestions in that link, or perhaps this issue may help? This would be a good question for the Webpack team, if issues persist! |

While a hacky way to do it , https://www.npmjs.com/package/patch-package is what you can use here. It'll create a diff between your modified version and the actual released version, thus running the patch after installation, so it should work on both platforms as expected, you are better off re-pinging on the developers for a more graceful solution though. |
