chokidar throws "Can't resolve 'fsevents'" warning on Windows about project-clippi

Thanks for your comment. You've inspired a fix which does not break fsevents on MacOS which your solution unfortunately does. See below or 5bda5f0.

Simply add this to the webpack.config.js file.

  if (process.platform !== "darwin") {
    context.plugins.push(
      new webpack.IgnorePlugin({
        resourceRegExp: /^fsevents$/,
      })
    );
  }

There is an issue on Chokidar's repo for the same problem. Over there I explained a solution. It is still kind of a workaround, but you don't need to change a 3rd party dependency's code:

Just mock the fsevents module then create an alias for it so webpack can resolve the require:

fsevents.js:

module.exports = undefined

In webpack.config.js:

resolve: {
  alias: {
    fsevents$: path.resolve(__dirname, `fsevents.js`),
  },
},

I explain this in detail on Stack Overflow
