+## Patch Cypress
+
+Cypress comes with an npm CLI module that parses the arguments, starts the Xvfb server (if necessary), and then opens the Test Runner application built on top of {% url "Electron" https://electronjs.org/ %}.
+
+If you're encountering a bug in the current version of Cypress, you can implementing a temporary fix by patching Cypress in your own project. Here is an example of how to do this.
+
+1. Install {% url "patch-package" https://github.com/ds300/patch-package %}.
+2. Add a patch step to your CI configuration after installing your npm packages.
+
+  ```yaml
+  - run: npm ci
+  - run: npx patch-package
+  ```
+
+  Alternatively, you can apply the patch during a post-install phase. In your `package.json`, for example, you could add the following:
+
+  ```json
+  {
+    "scripts": {
+      "postinstall": "patch-package"
+    }
+  }
+  ```
+
+3. Edit the line causing the problem *in your local node_modules folder* within `node_modules/cypress`.
+4. Run the `npx patch-package cypress` command. This command will create a new file `patches/cypress+3.4.1.patch`.
+
+  ```shell
+  npx patch-package cypress
+  patch-package 6.1.2
+  • Creating temporary folder
+  • Installing cypress@3.4.1 with npm
+  • Diffing your files with clean files
+  ✔ Created file patches/cypress+3.4.1.patch
+  ```
+
+5. Commit the new `patches` folder to git.
+
+{% note info %}
+If you find a patch for an error, please add a comment explaining your workaround to the relevant Cypress GitHub issue. It will help us release an official fix faster.

 ## Edit the installed Cypress code
 
 The installed Test Runner comes with the fully transpiled, unobfuscated JavaScript source code that you can hack on. You might want to directly modify the installed Test Runner code to:
