If we are using a windows and linux and encountered this issue

Error: Cannot find module @rollup/rollup-linux-x64-gnu. npm has a bug related to optional dependencies (https://github.com/npm/cli/issues/4828). Please try `npm i` again after removing both package-lock.json and node_modules directory.

You would need to remove package-lock.json as I initially built this in a mac OS m1 machine

rm -rf node_modules
rm -rf package-lock.json

npm install
