Cannot find module 'babel-runtime/helpers/interop-export-wildcard'

Getting this error when running simulator. Reinstalling modules: rm -rf node_modules && npm install gives the same error.

Running npm install a second time installs babel-runtime and the build succeeds when starting the simulator, but now I'm getting Uncaught Error: Uncaught ReferenceError: require is not defined in Chrome's dev tools console.

So I was getting the babel-runtime error this morning before I merged the CircleCI updates. I actually got the same error on a unrelated branch.

My ultimate solution was to restart my computer. I believe it has something to do with babel-runtime not being found because because a node process is still running.

Before restarting run ps aux | grep node to see if node is still running without the simulator of the react node server is running.

I did this:

• rm -rf node_modules
• checked if node was still running (was not running)
• restarted my computer
• npm install

I'm still getting the same error. When I run npm ls --depth=0 I'm getting this:

(more npm errors removed for brevity)

Trying to run the simulator here returns the babel-runtime error above. Running npm install again, seems like it installs the babel-runtime dependencies, and npm ls --depth=0 doesn't show the npm errors. The simulator now opens, but still getting the Uncaught ReferenceError.

Totally lost 😩

Let's pair on this. The errors aren't making sense.
