Then, you can require the package and use the lchmod function to set the file permissions of a symbolic link.

index.tsx
const fse = require('fs-extra');

fse.lchmod('/path/to/symlink', 0o755, (err) => {
  if (err) {
    console.error(err);
    return;
  }
  console.log('File permissions set successfully');
});

In the above code, '/path/to/symlink' is the path to the symbolic link whose file permissions you want to set, and 0o755 is the octal representation of the file permissions. The lchmod function takes two arguments: the path to the file and the file permissions, and a callback function that is called once the operation is complete. If there is an error, it will be passed to the callback function as the first argument.
