Next.js and Pannellum-react: "Global CSS cannot be imported from within node_modules." error

[QuirkWebDevelopment]

Hi!

I'm receiving the following error after installing and attempting to import the component in a Next.js 11 environment.

import { Pannellum } from "pannellum-react";

error - ./node_modules/pannellum-react/es/pannellum/css/pannellum.css Global CSS cannot be imported from within node_modules. Read more: https://nextjs.org/docs/messages/css-npm Location: node_modules/pannellum-react/es/elements/Pannellum.js

Next.js official documentation on this issue (https://nextjs.org/docs/messages/css-npm) doesn't have a good solution to this other than to refactor things so there's no CSS imported from node_modules or to "make a compiled version of the dependency."

That being said, I'm wondering if anyone has any insight on a workaround?

I found someone else with the same issue too: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/66664698/i-got-this-error-in-next-js-while-implement-pannellum-react-to-make-3d-images-g

Tracking URL here in case that thread ends up with valuable information.

Any insight much appreciated, and thanks for making the React version in the first place!

This is the reason.
vercel/next.js#27953 (reply in thread)

They have RFC for fixing it as far as I understood
