hey! i just met the same problem today,and i just solved it by copying the xmlhttprequest.js file in engine.io-client\lib to engine.io-client\lib\transports, and then change require('xmlhttprequest') to require('./xmlhttprequest') in all files in engine.io-client\lib\transports. Hope it works for you!

@dazich Thanks for the hack .but this cannot be a permanent solution to this issue .

@GeekRishabh it seems the browser field is not handled properly in react-native. Could you please open an issue in their repository?

Faced this issue too!
My version of engine.io has require ('xmlhttprequest-ssl'), so I had to change it to require ('xmlhttprequest'), but after that it says document not defined in polling-jsonp.js
(This is all in react-native)

I had the similar, issue when i made checkout of existing project.
I run npm -i, all dependency's were installed, but this error appears:

" Can't resolve 'engine.io-client' "

Was fixed by installing socket.io-client.

npm i socket.io-client
