ESBuild-loader does not understand javascript decorators (e.g. redux's @connect )

[mohsentaleb]

Bug description

I'm using Webpack5 with ESbuild-loader for my React project's build pipeline.
For connecting my components to Redux store I use @connect decorator instead of using the HOC approach.

When I try to start my dev server I get this error which is related to the line decorator is defined:

ERROR in ./project/MyComponent.jsx
Module build failed (from ./node_modules/esbuild-loader/dist/index.js):
Error: Transform failed with 1 error:
MyComponent.js:63:0: ERROR: Unexpected "@"

Reproduction

Example: MyComponent.jsx

@connect((state) => ({
    notes: state.notes,
}))
class MyComponent extends PureComponent {
    static propTypes = {
        notes: PropTypes.arrayOf(PropTypes.object),
    };
...
}

And here's my Webpack config rule for js/jsx files:

module: {
    rules: [
        {
            test: /\.(js|jsx)$/,
            exclude: /(node_modules)/,
            loader: 'esbuild-loader',
            options: {
                loader: 'jsx',
                target: 'es2015',
            },
        },

Node.js package manager

npm

This is expected behavior—neither esbuild or esbuild-loader is advertised to support decorators.
