npc flowershow preview fails silently

[benjitusk]

I am unable to preview my files. I am running on MacOS 13.4. I ran npm run dev in the .flowershow folder, and this is the result:

❯ npm run dev

I believe this is in relation to Excalidraw or some sort of assets issue, because this started happening after I messed around with excalidraw's export settings. I tried reinstalling flowershow to no avail.

With a bit of googling, it seems like that specific error can be caused by an infinite loop. I wonder how the two could be connected?

When renaming my assets folder so flowershow can't find it, it can run the preview command. Interestingly, the content symlink was missing, I just discovered that when reinstalling flowershow.
