Please save me some time and use the following template. In 90% of all issues I can't reproduce the problem because I don't know what exactly you are doing, in which environment, or which y-* version is responsible. Just use the following template even if you think the problem is obvious.

Describe the bug When importing y-websocket import { WebsocketProvider } from 'y-websocket', I get the error

Could not find a declaration file for module 'y-websocket'. '/Users/sa/.../node_modules/y-websocket/src/y-websocket.js' implicitly has an 'any' type.
  There are types at '/Users/sa/.../node_modules/y-websocket/dist/src/y-websocket.d.ts', but this result could not be resolved when respecting package.json "exports". The 'y-websocket' library may need to update its package.json or typings.

I am getting around it by adding a // @ts-ignore before the import statement.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Create a new Vite project with typescript, with vanilla js

Install these dependencies by editing your package.json file

...
"devDependencies": {
"typescript": "^5.0.2",
"vite": "^4.4.5"
},
"dependencies": {
"monaco-editor": "^0.43.0",
"y-monaco": "^0.1.4",
"y-websocket": "^1.5.0"
}
