WebPack

const webpack = require("@nativescript/webpack");
const NodePolyfillPlugin = require("node-polyfill-webpack-plugin")

module.exports = (env) => {
	webpack.init(env);

	webpack.chainWebpack(config => {
		// we add the plugin
		config.plugin('node-polyfill-webpack-plugin').use(NodePolyfillPlugin)
	  })

	return webpack.resolveConfig()
};

Additional context

• I know axios and a couple of other packages are not up to date and use the util.js which could be where the issue is. However, I removed those packages & references to them which resulted in the same error.
• I also added the polyfill package in webpack config so I don't think it is a polyfill issue?
• I have looked at SO questions, reported issues, etc. without any progress. Any help would be appreciated.

Inizia riproducendo il fallimento dell’avvio Android con le versioni di NativeScript fornite e analizza la configurazione webpack personalizzata, in particolare la configurazione di NodePolyfillPlugin. Segui il percorso segnalato attraverso node_modules/util/util.js, webpack/bootstrap, console-browserify e @nativescript/core; il lavoro è completato quando l’applicazione compilata si avvia senza la undefined env exception.
