Module not found: Error: Can't resolve 'crypto'

[Brian Anderson]

When adding the jira.js library to my CRA application and attempting to use the Version3Client I get the following error.

ERROR in ./node_modules/atlassian-jwt/dist/lib/jwt.js 61:15-32
Module not found: Error: Can't resolve 'crypto' in 'C:\projects\jira-helper\node_modules\atlassian-jwt\dist\lib'

BREAKING CHANGE: webpack < 5 used to include polyfills for node.js core modules by default.
This is no longer the case. Verify if you need this module and configure a polyfill for it.

If you want to include a polyfill, you need to:
- add a fallback 'resolve.fallback: { "crypto": require.resolve("crypto-browserify") }'
- install 'crypto-browserify'
If you don't want to include a polyfill, you can use an empty module like this:
resolve.fallback: { "crypto": false }

Here are my package versions:

Install crypto-browserify as a devDependency

npm i --save-dev crypto-browserify

Add the path to the package in your tsconfig.json

"compilerOptions": {
   ...
  "paths": {
    "crypto": ["./node_modules/crypto-browserify"]
