Need help with using javascript libraries in blade files

I am using Laravel 9 which comes with Vite instead of Mix. I have imported a couple of javascript libraries in my laravel bootatrap.js file and i know you have to use "import" with Vite instead of "require" but i get a undefined function error in the browser console when using the libraries inside blade files, even though the function works in the console.

I read somewhere on the internet that Vite does not work with blade files. Is this true?

Is this even a problem with Vite or is it something else?

Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.
