Deployments worked fine before I installed FontAwesome. Locally it works fine even with FontAwesome. But with FontAwesome dependency installed Cloudflare fails.

Console log from Cloudflare Pages:

I just had this issue when trying build a Strapi app on DigitalOcean. I was able to fix it using this guide from the FontAwesome website.

Unfortunately, this workaround requires a valid auth token. Luckily for me, I was already an FA Pro subscriber.

Create an .npmrc file in the root of your project and add the below code, replacing "TOKEN" with your auth token. The auth token can be found on the guide linked above once logged into the FA website.

@fortawesome:registry=https://npm.fontawesome.com/
//npm.fontawesome.com/:_authToken=TOKEN

I'm not well versed enough in npm authentication to know why the free version would require this, but I'm sure there must be another workaround for free users of FA.
