`npm run build` failing

[dunphyben]

I am able to run npm run build successfully when I clone this boilerplate fresh.
The code I have issues with was a clone of the realworldreact.com code, which I assume already had the npm run build and npm run deploy commands run on it. This is likely the issue, but I'm not sure how to fix it.
The repo in question is https://github.com/realworldreact/reactathon.com
Here are the output log errors:

ben$ npm run build

> npm run clean && npm run build:static && npm run build:cname

Not sure what the issue here is. I was unable to repro in that repository.

However this did bring to light a bug in the underlying webpack plugin, which has now been fixed.

[iansinnott]

Updated the plugin dependency and still wasn't able to repro. Try a fresh install of dependencies and run again:

rm -rf node_modules && npm install && npm run build

[dunphyben]

Amazing, that worked 👍

Thanks for the assistance
