Demo of an attempt to get Node, Vite, Vanilla Browser JS, and TSC to all work together.

example-jswt-umd

Demo of an attempt to get Vanilla JS with Types that works with TSC and is consumable by Node, Vite, and Browser (script tags) without modification.

Goal

1. Should work without modification
   (Node, Browsers, and Bundlers - Vite, WebPack, etc)
2. Should not break cyclic dependencies
   (use exports rather than overwriting it)
3. Type definitions should export as modules, not globally
4. Minimal boilerplate

Bonus 1: The exports can be implicitly typed.

I'm willing to give up #2 if it actually made the boilerplate significantly simpler.

...

I am considering the possibility of having a very simple build process to export in 3 different files (node, browsers, bundlers) with simple find-and-replace boilerplate changes, but that's a last resort.

Of course, those outputs have to still have to meet the other requirements... which might still not be possible...
