Normally we put such files in the build directory so that there's a stable path to get to it (See ElectronAppWrapper::buildDir). Because now if I'm not mistaken it's going to work on release but no longer on dev mode, is that correct?

• There isn't way a to remove the dynamic import? Maybe a file only for mobile (eg: file.android.js)

I was looking why I chose to use shim.requireDynamic because I couldn't remember, what happened is that onenote-converter is a dependency of lib which is required by the server.

To avoid adding Rust to the docker server image I end up removing the lines that imports onenote-converter and using requireDynamic. See commit: 992820c#diff-bdfb8b5c7b1ac62ecd6d5857c4f634d1b5c716ca76774f306c341f17ae7644e6

I'm trying to think if there is anything else I can do to avoid this.

Error that happens if I try to build without requireDynamic:

(It can't find package because it was deleted with sed in the Dockerfile.server definition):

# We don't want to build onenote-converter since it is not used by the server
RUN sed --in-place '/onenote-converter/d' ./packages/lib/package.json

• I don't need to call the specific file (@joplin/onenote should be enough)

I updated the PR as requested, testing again on dev and release version on Linux.

I also removed some information from the package.json that wasn't being used (requireDynamic can't return the typescript type, so I removed it from this entry also)

That looks good now, thanks Pedro
