Hey — it looks like the root cause here is having `node_modules` inside the `www/` folder. Cordova copies everything in `www/` into the platform assets, and when symlinks are present (like the ones npm creates in `.bin/`), the `fs.cp` call chokes trying to copy a symlink that points back into itself. Your workaround of deleting `www/node_modules/.bin` confirms this. The more permanent fix would be to avoid running `npm install` inside `www/` altogether — keep your frontend dependencies in the project root (or a separate `src/` folder) and use a build step to output only the final assets into `www/`. That way Cordova never tries to copy `node_modules` symlinks during `platform add`. Have you tried that approach? Curious if it fully resolves it for your workflow. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
