Webpack 5 no longer automatically includes polyfills for Node-specific objects like Buffer
and process
. However,
it's possible that your project, or one of its dependencies, still requires access to these variables. If so, you can
force Mix to include the necessary Node polyfills via the legacyNodePolyfills` option.
mix.options({
legacyNodePolyfills: true
});
Keep in mind that this might result in a slightly larger bundle. If possible, take the necessary steps to eventually
remove these references from your front-end code - and then turn off legacyNodePolyfills
to reduce your bundle size.
