I actually also opened an issue there -> vite-pwa/vite-plugin-pwa#755

[userquin]

Why are you installing dependencies with npm? This is a pnpm monorepo, all pwa depedencies using workspace: protocol.

Read the contributing guide.

[userquin]

Your error is about missing PWA dependencies, there is no Vite plugin resolving the corresponding virtual module.

[arnaudambro]

It doesn't yell anymore but I'm not sure why

maybe because I installed vite-plugin-pwa ? is it a requirement ?

anyway, closing because I think you were right about dependencies
