Hey mate, not the maintainer by any means of the imagination but you can fix this by using @originjs/vite-plugin-commonjs.

In your vite.config.(t/j)s you should have something like this:

import { defineConfig } from 'vite';
import { viteCommonjs, esbuildCommonjs } from '@originjs/vite-plugin-commonjs';

// https://vitejs.dev/config/
export default defineConfig({
  plugins: [
    viteCommonjs(),
  ],
  optimizeDeps:{
    esbuildOptions:{
      plugins:[
        esbuildCommonjs(['react-editor-js', '@react-editor-js/client', '@react-editor-js/server']) 
      ]
    }
  }
})

And your imports should work as something like this

// @ts-ignore: Workaround for CJS
import { createReactEditorJS } from 'react-editor-js/dist/react-editor-js.cjs';

I just got faced with the same problem and just fixed it rn.

Hope it helps, Luis Bizarro.

if that does not work, you can just add this to your vite config file

build: {
    commonjsOptions: { transformMixedEsModules: true }, // Change
  },

so something like this:

import { defineConfig } from "vite";
import path from "path";
import react from "@vitejs/plugin-react";

// https://vitejs.dev/config/
export default defineConfig({
  plugins: [react()],
  resolve: {
    alias: {
      "@": path.resolve(__dirname, "./src"),
    },
  },
  build: {
    commonjsOptions: { transformMixedEsModules: true }, // Change
  },
});
