[Bug] <Not working on Windows>

[Kareem21]

Is this a new bug?

• I believe this is a new bug
• I have searched the existing issues, and I could not find an existing issue for this bug

Current Behavior

Lots of issue running on windows. First I had to change the PORT location on the client to a different file, and currently struggling with the airbnb/node-memwatch node module since it won't install. I believe this guide was made for linux?

Expected Behavior

airbnb/node-memwatch should be installed when i do npm i but it keeps struggling (on the /server folder)

Steps To Reproduce

go to server folder and type npm i (when on windows)

Relevant log output

Thanks @Kareem21, node-memwatch isn't essential to the server, if you remove it as a dependency does this fix the problem for you? Thank you for flagging this.
