Describe the bug
I'm in a NextJS/Typescript project. I can't run my app when adding the <hanko-auth/>
component, compilation fails with SyntaxError: Unexpected token 'export'
in node_modules/@teamhanko/hanko-elements/dist/elements.js
Likely the compilation target is wrong. In tsconfig.json
it is "target": "es2017"
. But if I change it to es6
or es5
it's the same.
The error is identical to what is described in #905.
If I create a new next project from scratch, it doesn't happen. So I try to replicate the compilation issue in the new one, in the hope of spotting the problem: If I copy/paste my current tsconfig.json, from the project where it fails, to the new working nextjs implementation, it still works, so that typescript compilation configuration is not at fault.
The only other custom configuration I have is in next.config.js but I can do the same, copy paste it into the working project, and it still works.
I am not finding where the compilation error lies.
Reproducing the bug
I cannot manage to reproduce it from a new next project with typescript.

Turns out I was copying a raw nextjs repo where it worked without the dynamic
import, which is what I needed to make it work in my current nextjs repo. I don't know why it worked without in the test one, but this is what fixed it.
