Can't resolve 'child_process' in '...\node_modules\open\lib'

Question

I have my React project, and I'm trying to import and use react-embedded-browser

but I'm getting this error:

Module not found: Error: Can't resolve 'child_process' in 'C:...\projectName\node_modules\open\lib'

Hints:

I integrated this project with ExtReact, (but still the project works OK just until I npm install react-embedded-browser
I see that this npm package was updated last time 3 years ago (so it might be deprecated)
what should I use to Embed Web Browser into my WebPage if not this package (it can Not be a native)?

import React, {Component} from 'react';
import EmbeddedBrowser from 'react-embedded-browser';

function show() {
  let eb = document.querySelector('.embedded-browser');
  eb.className = 'embedded-browser anime-slidein';
  eb.open('https://google.com');
}

class EmbeddedBrowserComponent extends Component{
  render(){
      return (
          <div>
              <button type="button" onClick={show}>push me</button>
              <EmbeddedBrowser id="scaffolded-browser" />
      </div>
      )
  }
}

export default EmbeddedBrowserComponent;

Please provide some code where you are using embedded browser. — karthik shankar, Jun 08 '18 at 08:31

just put in package.json

"browser":{
"child_process": false
}

or { fork: false }

Have you imported react-embedded-browser in your component? – karthik shankar Jun 08 '18 at 08:30
Yes, I did. I was strictly following this example: https://github.com/rhysd/react-embedded-browser/tree/master/example – Zack Zilic Jun 08 '18 at 08:32
I have also the same problem, and this does not help. sorry. – Macilias May 15 '19 at 11:08
