Same here, happened all of a sudden and can’t seem to get rid of it. (tried to remove node_modules and .svelte-kit)

EDIT: seems like VisualCode had auto imported import { loadConfigFromFile } from 'vite' for me and when I removed that the error dissapeared

the only way for me was transpilation of fsevents with nuxt, ts in nuxt.config.ts:

export default { build: { transpile: [‘fsevents’] } }

Based on this stack overflow: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/46929196/how-to-solve-npm-install-throwing-fsevents-warning-on-non-mac-os

I deleted node_modules, and then did a npm install --no-optional and it made the issue go away (just deleting and doing npm install had no effect)

thank you! I wasted ages on this and found a VS Code auto import import {sortUserPlugins} from 'vite'; for no reason other than to spoil my afternoon.
