tsdx - react is null, prevents hook usage-CodePudding

I've recently tried creating a react typescript component using tsdx to compile and I've hit a bit of a wall when debugging. The package is published and seemingly being published and installed without error. However, when it comes to actually being used I'm always met with "TypeError: Cannot read properties of null (reading 'useEffect')". I had the same issue with useContext so simply replaced the functionality but now the error has migrated to useEffect.

This package runs totally fine locally, if I rip out all the code and inject it into an app manually it runs without issue. Initially I was just destructuring the useEffect hook from react but even when explicitly importing react as import React from 'react'; react is still apparently null...

Looking into the .cjs files I can see React being imported:

var React = _interopDefault(require('react'));

yet the issue persists.

Any and all help is appreciated, will paste some info from my package.json if it helps :)

Just leaving a note for anyone else that encounters this, in my package I had "react" and a number of other dependencies in a regular dependencies object in my package.json, the issue seemed to resolve when I moved these to devDependencies.
