"SVGR v6 will be the last version to support CommonJS" and how to support it?

"SVGR v6 will be the last version to support CommonJS. If you are still using CommonJS you should Get Ready For ESM as soon as possible."

I'm curious what are the steps are to support ESM libraries. I understand changing package.json type to "module" and adding "export" instead of main, but if I remember it's not just that easy with a mix of libraries that either type.

If you use:

• @svgr/cli: nothing to do, CLI are not impacted by ESM
• @svgr/core: you will have to call @svgr/core inside a .mjs file or a .js if your project is of "type": "module" in package.json

The migration of SVGR into ESM should not have big impact.
