npm run deploy takes forever

Hi everyone. I'm trying to deploy custom Hubs client and see "Building Admin Console" for 20 minutes i think. Is this really a correct build time or something wrong with the build in general? I canceled build under Windows and trying on WSL - same stuff.

When I have an issue with the admin panel build, the npm run deploy command hangs on the "Building Admin Console". Though sometimes with the npm run deploy command, I have to run it once or twice until it goes through.

To test that your admin panel build is working, in your hubs repo root, try:

1. cd admin
2. npm ci
3. If it succeeds, try the npm run deploy command again.
4. If it fails (might need to try once or twice), fix the error, then try again.

Let me know how it goes.

Thx, I think this should be added to documentation or we should implement an error handling in deployment command.
