@darrenhillconsulting @erictgrubaugh this was not something personally experienced by myself but I remembered seeing a post from a user who moved node_modules into a .node folder, Search for node_modules and you should see a thread back in mid November where a similar issue was discussed. Sorry I'm not more help but your issue seemed related to that earlier thread.

@JohnnyC @darrenhillconsulting @erictgrubaugh for it not to break nodejs, you need to create a .npmrc in your project root containing one line: prefix=.node. If you are using yarn like me you also need a .yarnrc with the following: --modules-folder ".node/node_modules". Create a .node folder and resinstall your node modules.

@benjamin I'm definitely going to try this after the XMas break. I'm in 'tying up loose ends' mode currently. i did read somewhere that simply renaming node_modules to .node_modules will work too!

no I tried that and ESlint and prettier stropped working. Only way I could get it to work is by using a top folder starting with dot

Hey guys saw this, earlier this week not sure if this solution would be better or not
