Cannot serve entry file from a dot folder

[adrianmcli]

🐛 bug report

When the entry file is inside a dot folder, I get the following error in my browser:

Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token <

It seems like the server might be serving the HTML as JS for some reason (instead of serving the real JS file).

🎛 Configuration (.babelrc, package.json, cli command)

No Babel config, Parcel is the only dependency, command:

parcel .myFolder/index.html

🤔 Expected Behavior

It should not error out.

😯 Current Behavior

Errors out in the browser:

Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token <

💁 Possible Solution

Maybe something is wrong with the way the server parses the paths? I am not sure about Parcel internals.

🔦 Context

I want to have my entry point file inside a dot folder (i.e. .myFolder). That's all.

Hello @adrianmcli, thanks for the report.

I was not able to reproduce the behaviour and the error indicates some problem in index.html as opposed to folder structure. Do you mind sharing the contents of index.html?
