A really ambitious project. I don't know if I will be able to do it.

Timeline

Ughh, I keep getting this error message and now my project is sinking, what a day.

After some research, I have found the correct implementation of the @tracespace/parser library. It seems like it didn't actually require Node.js's buffer. I have implemented it into my parser code and now it parses the entire gerber data into an array.

Have been trying various libraries that provide gerber file parsing but most of them weren't browser compatible and required Node.js's buffer. So I asked AI to give me a simple parser that I could work with to make my gerber viewer. Here is what the parser that it gave me draws. I am not going to be using this parser and I will try to look for other options.
