About vite-plugin-node-polyfills
vite-plugin-node-polyfills
A Vite plugin to polyfill Node's Core Modules for browser environments. Supports node: protocol imports.
Why do I need this?
Since browsers do not support Node's Core Modules, packages that use them must be polyfilled to function in browser environments. In an attempt to prevent runtime errors, Vite produces errors or warnings when your code references builtin modules such as fs or path.
Getting Started
Install the package as a dev dependency.
Add the plugin to your vite.config.ts file.
Customizable when you need it
The following options are available to customize it for your needs.
All polyfills
• If protocolImports is true, also adds node:[module]
