Modern tsconfig.json setup to support ES6 import / export module syntax when target is browser

TLDR I am targeting the browser. Using VSCode to write typescript and consume a (sample) npm package. I checked as best I can but I get an uncaught error in browser console saying

Uncaught ReferenceError: require is not defined

Longer version:

I am trying to work in my typescript project with the a package named Graphemer, but I had a similar issue with another package so I think this is my issue, not the packages. I am writing my code in VScode, target is the browser. Here is my tsconfig.json

{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "target": "es2016", 
    "module": "ES6",
    "moduleResolution": "node",
    "outDir": "./dist",
    "strict": true,   
    "skipLibCheck": true   
  }

node -v gives version v16.17.0
tsc -v gives Version 4.9.3
Chrome browser is Version 111.0.5563.65 (Official Build) (64-bit)

So…

1. I install Graphemer into the project folder /node_modules folder via $ npm i graphemer.

2. The docs in Graphemer github say I can then, in my own TS file, do

import Graphemer from 'graphemer';

const splitter = new Graphemer();

3. So I make a main.ts file containing

import Graphemer from "Graphemer";

function test() {
    const splitter = new Graphemer();
}

4. No errors in VSCode or TSC. I open the browser and look in the console and I see the error message:

main.js:6 Uncaught ReferenceError: require is not defined
    at main.js:6:21

And I look in the /dist/main.js file to see

"use strict";
var __importDefault = (this && this.__importDefault) || function (mod) {
    return (mod && mod.__esModule) ? mod : { "default": mod };
};
Object.defineProperty(exports, "__esModule", { value: true });
const Graphemer_1 = __importDefault(require("Graphemer"));
function test() {
    const splitter = new Graphemer_1.default();
}

Where of course there is a line referencing require…

const Graphemer_1 = __importDefault(require("Graphemer"));

Question – what is the proper configuration of TSC, when targeting the browser, to get the JS generated to simply work with ES6 import/export module syntax?

Supplementary info:

The content of the Graphemer file /node_modules/Grapheme /lib/indexjs is

"use strict";
var __importDefault = (this && this.__importDefault) || function (mod) {
    return (mod && mod.__esModule) ? mod : { "default": mod };
};
Object.defineProperty(exports, "__esModule", { value: true });
const Graphemer_1 = __importDefault(require("./Graphemer"));
exports.default = Graphemer_1.default;
console.log('exports',exports)

>Solution :

To use npm modules in a browser-hosted application, you’ll need to use a bundler like Vite, Webpack, Rollup, Browserify, etc. That’s because you won’t provide the entire node_modules directory in script tags in your application. The purpose of the bundler in this situation is to wrap up your code along with code from node_modules and put it into "bundles" that you then include in your browser application.

Alternatively, you can use many npm modules directly via https://www.npmjs.com, and many of them may also be available on CDNs like https://cdnjs.com/ where you can directly reference them in your script tags.
