Next.js template with PNPM has a bundling problem with the AWS SDK

[JonnyBurger]

• The Lambda function gets bundled
• aws-crt is an optional peer dependency of the AWS SDK
• PNPM does not install optional dependencies
• Webpack does need every dependency that is referenced in the code, even if it does not actually get imported

Workaround

Install aws-crt manually.

We added a Next.js override to the following config:

https://github.com/remotion-dev/template-next-app-dir/blob/main/next.config.js

We recommend to add it to any Next.js router.

Still pending: Update all doc pages

Or we just add it as a dependency even though it is not necessary 🤷🏼‍♂️ then no user action is needed
