Dual (CommonJS + ESM) Dual package — require() works on every Node.js version we test; import works too
@radix-ui/react-direction publishes both a CommonJS entry and a native ESM entry (ESM added in 1.0.1). require("@radix-ui/react-direction") works on every Node.js version we test (18, 20, 22, 24 and 26) and in Bun. import "@radix-ui/react-direction" works alongside it.
What to do
- Nothing to change. require("@radix-ui/react-direction") works on every Node.js version we test (18, 20, 22, 24 and 26) and in Bun. import * as reactDirection from "@radix-ui/react-direction" works alongside it; use named imports for what the ESM entry exports.
- TypeScript: types are bundled; install nothing extra.
