OK, this is extremely strange.

const io = require('socket.io-client/dist/socket.io')
// const io = require('socket.io-client/')

I normally use the second line, uncommented. It pretty much never works in development. However, if I use the above code when I do npm run dev, then I comment the top and uncomment the bottom, it hot-reloads and works for the rest of the dev session.
