Last verified Sep 9, 2026 against rollup-plugin-postcss@4.0.2.

rollup-plugin-postcss ships CommonJS only. require("rollup-plugin-postcss") works on every Node.js version we test (18, 20, 22, 24 and 26) and in Bun. The package declares Node.js >=10. import "rollup-plugin-postcss" also works because Node.js and Bun can import CommonJS from ES modules, but only the default export is guaranteed; named imports depend on Node's static analysis of the module.

## What to do

1. require("rollup-plugin-postcss") works on every Node.js version we test (18, 20, 22, 24 and 26) and in Bun. The package declares Node.js >=10.
2. From ES modules use the default import: import rollupPluginPostcss from "rollup-plugin-postcss"; then destructure. Named imports only work when Node.js can statically detect the exports.
3. TypeScript: types are bundled; install nothing extra.
