Description

(function (exports) { import * as Device from './Device';
                      ^^^^^^

SyntaxError: Cannot use import statement outside a module
    at new Script (vm.js:102:7)
    at Module.evaluate (/sandbox/node_modules/@linaria/webpack4-loader/node_modules/@linaria/babel-preset/lib/module.js:290:20)

It seems linaria webpack-loader need to transpile all @ui5 and lit-html packages to ES5

By default, Linaria doesn’t transpile modules inside node_modules. However, you can add a rule for a specific folder (see rules options). For your case, linaria.config.js will look like this:

module.exports = {
    rules: [
        {
            action: require('@linaria/shaker').default,
        },
        {
            test: /\/node_modules\//,
            action: 'ignore',
        },
        {
            test: /\/node_modules\/@ui5\//,
            action: require('@linaria/shaker').default,
        },
    ]
};
