Dual (CommonJS + ESM) Dual package — require() works on every Node.js version we test; import works too

@radix-ui/primitive publishes both a CommonJS entry and a native ESM entry (ESM added in 1.0.1). require("@radix-ui/primitive") works on every Node.js version we test (18, 20, 22, 24 and 26) and in Bun. import "@radix-ui/primitive" works alongside it.

What to do

  1. Nothing to change. require("@radix-ui/primitive") works on every Node.js version we test (18, 20, 22, 24 and 26) and in Bun. import * as primitive from "@radix-ui/primitive" works alongside it; use named imports for what the ESM entry exports.
  2. TypeScript: types are bundled; install nothing extra.
