ERROR: Webpack < 5 after installing web3 and implementing into React Native App.js-CodePudding

I am getting an error after trying to install and use web3 into my react native website, that I am building to learn more about web3 development. After installing web3 and then adding:

import Web3 from 'web3';

const web3 = new Web3(Web3.givenProvider || "http://localhost:8545");
web3.eth.getAccounts().then(console.log);

Into my App.js file I have received these errors that follow:

I have found these errors on multiple other posts. I have tried to install each of the following os-browserify, https-browserify, stream-http, stream-browserify, crypto-browserify. While also trying to add a fallback for each one in webpack.config.js file. But still nothing is helping or working. So hopefully someone else will have an answer. Thanks have a good day!

CodePudding user response：

I figured it out. There's two fixes from this article: https://medium.com/@rasmuscnielsen/how-to-compile-web3-js-in-laravel-mix-6eccb4577666

Easy way, Need to change import:

import Web3 from 'web3'

import Web3 from 'web3/dist/web3.min.js'
