Error: Cannot find module @babel

Got this error when running against my create-react-app based project, any idea why it crashes?

C:\Projekte\mine>tldrlegal
module.js:550
    throw err;

@rejas Yes you got it!

I didn’t have yarn installed so that explains why my create-react-app invocation wasn’t creating a broken node_modules/ directory structure that tldrlegal wasn’t liking!

All along that was the difference causing this strange behavior.

Updating tldrlegal to use the latest version of legally in https://github.com/eladnava/tldrlegal/commit/1d3ebed55725b0b6e87de3fd0a3f3b16c6248999 has added support for Yarn’s special node_modules/ format.

Published tldrlegal version 1.0.8 which resolves this.

Thanks all for your help! 🎉
