Fix ReferenceError

in esbuild

Solution

ReferenceErrors in esbuild often stem from minification introducing undeclared variables, particularly with features like `||=` on write-only locals, or from incorrect handling of TypeScript namespace imports during bundling. To fix this, ensure your esbuild target is high enough to support all language features used, or explicitly import default exports if using TypeScript `import X = Default.Y` syntax to avoid their silent omission.
