Hi everyone! 👋

I’m facing a persistent issue with Adalo’s CLI while running `npx adalo dev` for a custom component, and I’d really appreciate any insights or advice from the community. Here are the details:

**The Problem**

- Error message:

```auto
Module parse failed: Unexpected token (51:11)
You may need an appropriate loader to handle this file type, currently no loaders are configured to process this file.

```

- This happens when the CLI tries to process JSX in `src/TransactionReport.jsx`.

**What I’ve Done**

I’ve meticulously verified all the following steps:

1. **Configuration Files:**

- My `webpack.config.js` has `babel-loader` configured to handle `.js` and `.jsx` files, linked correctly via `package.json`.
- `adalo.json`, `manifest.json`, and `src/index.js` paths are all consistent.

1. **Babel Setup:**

- `.babelrc` includes `@babel/preset-env` and `@babel/preset-react`.

1. **Dependencies:**

- `babel-loader`, `@babel/core`, `@babel/preset-env`, and `@babel/preset-react` are properly installed.

1. **React Versions:**

- Using `react@17.0.0` and `react-dom@17.0.0`, both valid versions.

Despite everything being in place, the Adalo CLI seems to ignore the configured Webpack/Babel loaders.

**Specs & Notes**

- **Operating System:** macOS
- **Node.js Version:**
- This error persists with this custom component, even though simpler test setups compile just fine.

**Request from the Community**

If anyone has faced a similar issue or knows a workaround, I’d be incredibly grateful for your suggestions! 🙏

Is it possible that there’s a quirk or limitation with how Adalo’s CLI interacts with Webpack and Babel on macOS?

Any advice is welcome. Thanks in advance! 😊
