HI @jaime-ez, it's the newest client version with reactjs running on browser

[jaime-ez]

Hi, you'll have to provide an example, I can not reproduce the error. Are you using a bundler?

[geohuz]

Hi @jaime-ez , quote from stack overflow:

In Webpack version 5, Webpack no longer automatically polyfill's Node.js API's if they are not natively supported anymore. The browser environment does not support Buffer natively, therefore we now need to add a third party Buffer package and point Node.js to it in the Webpack config.

So I have to manually install the buffer packge then fix the issue.

Oh ok, the you could install it per the instrucions for react native and thus change the main file to the already bundled one:

DEEPSTREAM_ENV=react-native npm install @deepstream/client --save

I'm gonna keep this open in order to remind me to document it

Hi, this should be fixed in the latest version 7.0.1
Please reopen if problem persists
