Hey,

Thanks for posting this for me. I was trying to run the build and got the error above. Which environments has this been tested on?

Hey Paul!

Welcome to the community, thanks for joining in.

Can you please describe the steps you have followed to build Frontity on Windows? The framework should work correctly on that OS.

Hey Pablo,

Thank you :slight_smile: All I did was npm install which run well until the above error. Not really sure if this has been run on Windows before

Hi @paultitude, welcome to the forums :slight_smile:

Could you please run npx frontity info in the root folder of your project and paste the result here?
