hey, thanks for reaching out. what NodeJS version are you using?
i'll have to investigate this a bit more, but it seems like an easy fix.
sadly i can't give you a time frame on the update, because i am currently undergoing a very strenuous medical treatment.

I use node version 16.13.0. And good luck with your medical treatment.

Hm, I have no issues with Node.js v16.
Are you by any chance pulling in the "url" module in your webpack config?

Hi I'm having the same issue too - I'm using parcel.js rather than webpack and it is adding the "url" package to the package.json
