library breaks after production build with webpack

[axe-me]

my build is fine without using UglifyJSPlugin. but with UglifyJSPlugin, I got the error in runtime:
TypeError: t.appendChild is not a function

so i have to import the minified version which is working fine.

I have no problems when creating a production build in Webpack4 using Horsey.

I do have the same problem in Webpack4 (using Terser). Importing the minified version helps.

I guess I should find another autocomplete library. 😢

[mikemix]

I guess. It looks dead.

I got the same, seems to be a problem with using shadowed variables "categories" in the loaded function inside the same closure as the autocomplete function with also a "categories". Some minifiers in production build might not realize the nature of the shadowed variable and set it to the wrong value, calling appendChild on an array..
