Hi there! I got this error on terminal. I'm using Laravel+Vue.js+Inertia.js(for routing and SSR) stack for my project. When it runs in dev and prod, there isn't any problems. But when i activate SSR, i getting the error in the board. 

 

I don't think this problem is related to Inertia, Nuxt, Next etc. Is there any SSR solutions for GSAP?

It's pretty tough to troubleshoot without a minimal demo - the issue could be caused by CSS, markup, a third party library, your browser, an external script that's totally unrelated to GSAP, etc. Would you please provide a very simple CodePen or CodeSandbox that demonstrates the issue? 

 

Please don't include your whole project. Just some colored <div> elements and the GSAP code is best (avoid frameworks if possible). See if you can recreate the issue with as few dependancies as possible. If not, incrementally add code bit by bit until it breaks. Usually people solve their own issues during this process! If not, then at least we have a reduced test case which greatly increases your chances of getting a relevant answer.

 

Here's a starter CodePen that loads all the plugins. Just click "fork" at the bottom right and make your minimal demo: 

See the Pen aYYOdN by GreenSock (@GreenSock) on CodePen

 

If you're using something like React/Next/Vue/Nuxt or some other framework, you may find StackBlitz easier to use. We have a series of collections with different templates for you to get started on these different frameworks: React/Next/Vue/Nuxt.

 

Once we see an isolated demo, we'll do our best to jump in and help with your GSAP-specific questions.

Hi @Aenzenith and welcome to the GreenSock forums!

 

Thanks for being a Club GreenSock member and supporting GreenSock!

 

I don't have a lot of experience with Laravel but what you could try is to create individual imports for each module:

import gsap from "gsap";
import { ScrollSmoother } from "gsap/ScrollSmoother";
import { ScrollTrigger } from "gsap/ScrollTrigger";

If you keep having issues maybe try with the UMD modules:

import gsap from "gsap/dist/gsap";
import { ScrollSmoother } from "gsap/dist/ScrollSmoother";
import { ScrollTrigger } from "gsap/dist/ScrollTrigger";

Hopefully this helps. Let us know if you have more questions.

Happy Tweening!
