+#### Error `spawn ENOENT`
+
+This is caused when the loader tries to spawn a binary that does not exists
+(`file or directory not found`). If you call webpack like `webpack` or
+`webpack --watch`, then you need to ensure that all required binaries that the
+loader depends on are available in your `$PATH`. 
+
+If you use `npm run` and `npm start` on NixOS, then it will first attempt to find 
+binaries in `node_packages/.bin`. If you have the compiler installed through `npm` 
+and it finds it there, this will cause `ENOENT`on Nix, because 
+[the binary needs to be patched first, because npm will install the binary that is 
+linked with /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 - a file that will not exist at that path in 
+NixOS](https://github.com/ethul/purescript-webpack-example/issues/5#issuecomment-282492131).
+The solution is to simply use the compiler from `haskellPackages.purescript` and
+make sure that it's available in `$PATH`. For more information about how to make 
+it work on Nix, see [Purescript Webpack Example](https://github.com/ethul/purescript-webpack-example#using-globally-installed-binaries)
