I am trying to deploy a react vite app. The build seems to fail with this error message:

apparently the usb module is a dependency of a package used in the application, who runs and build without issues locally.
I did a bit of digging and i understand this seems to be a nix issue (which i know nothing about) and it seems i would need to use a nixpacks.toml file to resolve this dependency issue.... I tried some with the help of chat gpt but to no success.

I would really need some guidance and help because i'm really in the dark here
