Node packages cannot be imported in the main thread using the import syntax

[chunfenghuayu1]

for example：
if i use express/express-http-proxy in main thread
const express = require('express') const expressProxy = require('express-http-proxy')
it will be normal。

but when i use import syntax
import express from 'express' import expressProxy from 'express-http-proxy'
it will output a error：
TypeError: require$$0$2 is not a functionat D:\code

if it my project problem，how i fix it？

i cannot understand why electron can use import，but express cannot？

This may be a problem caused by esbuild 👀

But. You can move express and express-http-proxy to dependencies to resolve it.
