Using `--target node` and `--target electron` #4

Hello there, your boilerplate is working great until I encountered the errors fs.existsSync is not a function and Cannot statically evaluate fs argument after trying to use another npm package. While trying to troubleshoot it, I tried to specify the Parcel targets node and electron by changing the line in package.json from

"react-start": "parcel -p 3000 index.html --out-dir build",

to

"react-start": "parcel -p 3000 index.html --out-dir build --target node",

and

"react-start": "parcel -p 3000 index.html --out-dir build --target electron",

However, running yarn start no longer launch the Electron app and no server is listening to http://localhost:3000.

What is the correct way to set the targets to node and electron?

Thank you very much!
