Research direction

Start at the /dist/index entry point and inspect how the ES module and default imports are selected during production builds. Compare the DevTool export with the default-import noop, then verify that a production bundle excludes the DevTool implementation while development builds still include it.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

As the title says, when a project by default imports and builds everything from ES modules, hookform's DevTool import returns the entire code even in production builds, instead of the noop of the default import.

Depending on the environment, a quick workaround may be to import from /dist/index for now, which returns either the CommonJS-version or a noop DevTool.
