I have ran into a problem, the error is regeneratorRuntime is not defined
while working with React and Parcel bundler.
The problem appeared after I added an async function and while searching the problem, I found a stack-overflow solution but it didn't work. So, don't use this method.
Solution
First, I found this solution:
- add
import "babel-polyfill";
at the top of the file that you are using the async function.
BUT
later learned that babel-polyfill is deprecated. So, to solve the regeneratorRuntime problem, do this:
Install regenerator-runtime
npm install --save regenerator-runtime
Update webpack file
entry: ["regenerator-runtime/runtime.js", "<your enter js file>"]
require
import 'regenerator-runtime/runtime'
at the top of the file that you're using async function
I didn't edit webpack, because I'm using Parcel, but just importing regenerator-runtime/runtime at the top of the file solved the problem.

wow! It, weirdly enough...worked!
Usually I too waste HOURS looking for how to fix this rocket science configs.
I have components that are lazy loaded with all their dependencies, but when a component imported something from node_modules, I had this error.
I'm using next.js.
I just installed the dependency
regenerator-runtime
and addedimport 'regenerator-runtime/runtime';
to the top of the root component that was lazy loaded and it, for my surprise, worked, as simple as that!Thank you very much :)
Simple and effective.
Made an account just to say non of these or any single findable "fix" on the internet can fix this in late 2021,
again webpack and babel waste hours upon hours of dev time for their chronic incompatibly and version inconsistency.
I hate every hour I work in this industry.
then please leave to code
Strange, worked for me.
Thank you 🧡

This is no more recommended. Use this instead:
...and add in .babelrc:
I had
babel-polyfill
in couple of files in codebase but was not able to understand since I was new. In those files it had just this statement to fix issue:or
