Fix SyntaxError

in Webpack

Solution

A webpack "SyntaxError" often arises from using a loader (like ts-loader) incorrectly for a specific module type (like CommonJS), generating invalid syntax for that module system. To fix this, ensure your webpack configuration uses the correct loader options or test conditions to properly transform the code for the intended module type (e.g., setting `esModuleInterop: true` in `tsconfig.json` or adjusting `module.exports` statements). Also, verify no other loaders are conflicting and misinterpreting compatible code.
