[BUG] Error when importing from "@microsoft/mgt-element" in nextjs

[dcardenas-shokworks]

The following error is produced when running a dev instance of a nextjs application and trying to import @microsoft/mgt-element

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

create a nextjs application "npx create-next-app app_name"

cd app_name

npm install @microsoft/mgt

modify index.js to the following:

import * as React from "react"; import { GetServerSideProps } from "next"; import { getSession } from "next-auth/react"; import { Session } from "next-auth"; import { SessionNextAuthExtendProps } from "@/interfaces/common"; import { Providers } from "@microsoft/mgt-element"; import { Msal2Provider } from "@microsoft/mgt-msal2-provider";

Providers.globalProvider = new Msal2Provider({ clientId: 'my client id' });

const Home = () => { return <></>; };

Expected behavior When this is done in pure reactjs it works perfectly it should function the similarly in nextjs

Environment (please complete the following information):

OS: Windows11 Browser: Chrome, Edge, Firefox Framework: nextjs

Using @microsoft/mgt is probably not the right approach here as it loops in so many other packages.

I was able to make it work with the following setup:

npm i @microsoft/mgt-components @microsoft/mgt-msal2-provider @microsoft/mgt-react

I also needed to force "client" mode in nextjs as MGT is not valid with SSR.

'use client';

import Image from 'next/image'
import { Providers } from "@microsoft/mgt-element";
import { Msal2Provider } from "@microsoft/mgt-msal2-provider";
import { Login, ThemeToggle } from '@microsoft/mgt-react';

Providers.globalProvider = new Msal2Provider({
  clientId: '228fcaa6-c845-40be-913a-e4489ba7cb17'
});

export default function Home() {
  return (
