npm ERR! This is probably not a problem with npm. There is likely additional logging output above.

Workaround

1. Update webpack.config.js to add the following to the configOverwrite.include array passed to the ForkTsCheckerWebpackPlugin plugin in webpack.config.js:

'./src/types/**/*.ts'

2. Re-run npm run build:webpack
3. Observe no build error
