Herd on Windows and npm run dev

[mrkatz]

I'm having an issue with asset reloading using npm run dev using Herd. if I run npm run build, everything works fine with herd hosted site. However, if I run npm run dev I receive "Failed to resolve module specifier "alpinejs". Relative references must start with either "/", "./", or "../". " error in the console. Assets are not loaded...this is on a fresh project with Laravel Breeze starter pack. This is on both HTTP and HTTPS enabled. I've attempted a few different vite.config suggestions...but not have helped thus far:

import { defineConfig } from 'vite';
import laravel from 'laravel-vite-plugin';

export default defineConfig({
plugins: [
laravel({
input: [
'resources/css/app.css',
'resources/js/app.js',
],
refresh: true,
// detectTls: true,
})
]
// ,
// build: {
// watch: {
// include: ["resources/**"],
// },
// }
});
