… Sorry I am going to be lazy on the description since I guess the error will be obvious for you to find. If it is not, tell me what to try or what to tell you @KaiHotz.

Additional context This happens when building the website with GatsbyJS Version 2.2.5 is going fine so I rolled back

Thanks for looking at this. If you go that way It means that react-formik-ui is not SSR friendly anymore. That’s a shame IMHO. =/ Usually when I happen to use such a library on a Gatsby Project I conditionally require the lib and and hide the depending components when SSR and only show them when in SPA mode. That is what I will do if you decide to keep things that way. I think a form library should handle SSR but that is just my opinion. You should not worry about it. 😉 I have no clue what good practice are regarding SSR handling in libs like this one. Maybe a way to go would be to beautifully degrade UX when typeof window === 'undefined'. So you can go as fancy as you’d like but still support a broader range of use cases.
