Updates to next.config.js

Make sure to update your next.config.js file with the following changes:

const path = require('path');
...

const nextConfig = {
  ...
  webpack: (config, { dev, isServer }) => {
    if (dev && !isServer) {
      const autoFormFillerPath = path.resolve(__dirname, 'node_modules/auto-form-filler/dist');
      config.watchOptions = {
        ignored: /node_modules\/(?:[\\]+|\/)+(?!auto-form-filler)/,
      };

      config.module.rules.push({
        test: /\.(?:js|jsx|ts|tsx)$/,
        include: [autoFormFillerPath],
        use: [
          {
            loader: 'babel-loader',
            options: {
              presets: ['next/babel'],
            },
          },
        ],
      });
    }

    return config;
  },
};

module.exports = withSentryConfig(nextConfig, ...);

Adding New Fields
