Start with the password import and the optimizeDeps section in vite.config.ts, then run the reported build on Windows 11 with Node v20.17.0. Trace how @node-rs/argon2 is handled during the client build; done means the provided Qwik project builds and previews without Rollup parsing the native .node file.
