Interesting: https://github.com/microsoft/TypeScript/issues/49271#issuecomment-1139688063

So you can fix it by using:

import { default as anchorPlugin } from 'markdown-it-anchor'

Still I believe TypeScript shouldn’t require the dependency to have "type":"module" in its root package.json for the default import to work, as long as exports.import is defined in package.json too, pointing to an actual ESM file. Might be worth reporting an issue in TS itself?

Edit: reported it here https://github.com/microsoft/TypeScript/issues/50083 but was closed as wontfix
