I'm getting this error from requiring dotenv require('dotenv').config();

Configuration

Scripts start: "ts-node-esm app.ts"

in tsconfig.json "target": "ES6", / Set the JavaScript language version for emitted JavaScript and include compatible library declarations./

here's how I did it

replace require statements with import statements
for dotenv I replaced with this import dotenv from 'dotenv'; dotenv.config();
