Hello everyone! Hope you are doing fabulous!

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but I got stuck in the Jamming exercise with the following error:

BREAKING CHANGE: webpack < 5 used to include polyfills for node.js core modules by default.
This is no longer the case. Verify if you need this module and configure a polyfill for it.

I have tried soooo many things i read online to fix it but nothing seems to do the trick. :frowning:

As far as I read is a problem with webpack v5 but I am so beginner that these topics are hard to understand.

If anyone has an answer to this please do share! I am lost

I solved it!
I had an import in Spotify.js that vscode put automatically and that was breaking things.
