Disperancy in running a package in dev vs release

[rahuldshetty]

Hello!!

I'm building a desktop app with TauriV2 and Sveltekit where I'm using https://github.com/postlight/parser to do some HTML parsing. I'm able to run this package fine in dev mode. But when I create a release build and test it, then I run into this error:

TypeError: cheerio.load is not a function

Link to the code: https://github.com/rahuldshetty/reader-project/blob/760d9f0ca020aa3a2dd36d7601ccb35c16d5630b/src/lib/content_view/parsers.ts#L20

Any pointers would be really appreciated.

After trying my luck with many LLMs over the past couple of days, I've now switched to using Sidecar with Tauri for running the @postlight/parser script. It works for now, but feels like there is some performance gaps.

If someone has better ways to solve this, please do let me know!!
