Hello everyone, in legacy plugins I was able to run the following import: `import EditorJs from 'react-editor-js';` In the **new platform** (v7.8.2) I can no longer do that import. This generates the following errors (when using `node scripts/build_kibana_platform_plugins`), is there a workaround? my plugin is not used by other plugins. ```auto $ node scripts/build_kibana_platform_plugins info initialized, 99 bundles cached info starting worker [1 bundles, ? modules] ERROR webpack compile errors │ERROR [myPlugin] build │ERROR Optimizations failure. │ 186 modules │ │ ERROR in ./node_modules/@editorjs/editorjs/dist/editor.js │ Module parse failed: disallowed syntax found in file /home/tosti/Tosti_/kibana_7.8.2/kibana/plugins/myPlugin/node_modules/@editorjs/editorjs/dist/editor.js: │ - [es2015] ...spread │ - [es2015] let/const variable declaration │ - [es2015] arrow function expression │ - [es2015] class │ - [es2015] destructuring │ You may need an appropriate loader to handle this file type, currently no loaders are configured to process this file.

Hello @AndreaTosti I think your plugin needs to be built before `node scripts/build_kibana_platform_plugins` can be run. There are some sample plugins in the kibana repo that might help, including this one - `https://github.com/elastic/kibana/tree/master/test/plugin_functional/plugins/management_test_plugin` Take a look at the `package.json` file. As you can see, the typescript compiler is run. You can also try the plugin generator - `node scripts/generate_plugin.js [name]` ---

Hi, first of all thanks for the help, i tried to follow your advice but i was not successful. I solved the problem using a local version of EditorJS, in particular I had to use Babel to switch to a code written in ES5 (more details [here](https://github.com/codex-team/editor.js/issues/1259#issuecomment-669767626)) ---
