So the problem here is that Node scripts are run using the shell (e.g., cmd.exe on Windows; generally Bash on Linux and Mac) and shells have different languages. So build:prod runs:

npm run test && npm run build

The npm run test part works more or less but then it hits the npm run build which runs:

 npm run clean && NODE_ENV="production" webpack --progress --colors

The first part of that works, but the second parts hits the NODE_ENV part and fails because this is how you set an environment variable on POSIX-compatible shells, but not the Window cmd.exe (the syntax there is set NODE_ENV="production").

Here are a few options that will get this working for you:

  1. If you have Git for Windows installed, just run the npm run build:prod command in the Git BASH emulator.
  2. You can install this Node package, which purports to solve the problem (at least while using cmd.exe and for a limit number of environment variables).
  3. You can install the Windows Subsystem for Linux and use a real version of Bash (though that’s a bit heavy-weight for just compiling one package).
