Export GIF fails with error Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token '.'

[grant-davidson]

To reproduce:

1. clone excalidraw-claymate
2. install packages
3. yarn start
4. Add snapshot
5. click "Export GIF"

Workaround : Copy node_modules\gif.js\dist\gif.worker.js to public\gif.worker.js

Is this only about when you clone the repo? Or is it failing in the published app?

[grant-davidson]

Yes, it works fine in the published app

Ah ha, so the issue is that the symbolic link does not work on windows. Any idea to fix it more nicely?

[grant-davidson]

That makes sense.
I'll see if I can find a fix.
