Window is not defined

See original GitHub issue

Hi there,

Running into this error using the webpack integration with the react-refresh/babel plugin

packages/webpack/src/utils/createTemplate.js

// Execute the module function
const prevRefreshReg = window.$RefreshReg$; // ERROR: Window is undefined
const prevRefreshSig = window.$RefreshSig$;

I have tried modifying the globalObject in the webpack output to use this, but unfortunately still doesn’t work and seems to break other things.

webpack.config below:


const path = require('path');
const webpack = require('webpack');
const MiniCssExtractPlugin = require('mini-css-extract-plugin');
const OUTPUT_DIR = 'dist';
const PreactRefreshPlugin = require('@prefresh/webpack');

const mainEntries = [path.resolve(__dirname, './src/engine/client/index.tsx')];

// Exports
module.exports = {
