I am developing a ClojureScript project using shadow-cljs and yarn. When I connect my REPL to the remote nREPL server everything works fine except when I try to load a namespace depending on js libraries that presumably use web worker threads. When this happens I get the following error:
------ REPL Error while processing ---------------------------------------------
(require '["firebase-admin" :as admin])
The required JS dependency "worker_threads" is not available, it was required by "node_modules/write-file-atomic/index.js".

See: https://shadow-cljs.github.io/docs/UsersGuide.html#npm-install
I can easily reproduce the problem by trying to invoke the command (require '["firebase-admin" :as admin]).
firebase-admin has been installed. Note that the missing library is ''worker_threads" not firebase-admin.
worker_threads should be built in to node and available as of node 12. I am using v15.5.1.
Any ideas how to resolve this? Per Thomas Heller it may be a bug.
