TypeError: axios.create is not a function error

After upgrading apisauce to latest(3.0.1) version I got TypeError: axios.create is not a function error.

Issue: Apisauce was failing to create ApisauceInstance using create function.
Fix: After downgrading apisauce to 3.0.0 version works in normal way.

I also encountered the same error and found that axios is a string after troubleshooting.

webpack 5.88
apisauce 3.0.1
node.js 16.13

After webpack bundling, the axios is compiled into:

I suspect it could be an issue with how webpack handles dependencies or there might be an issue with the exports in the axios package's configuration file.

Same problem here while upgrading from 2.0 to 3.0.1 on a Create React App project (webpack). It seems to be a problem with a certain version of axios that does not export properly the create() function, see axios/axios#5613 and axios/axios#5038. I'm very interested in any workaround. 🙏

The apisauce@3.0.1 udpdate axios to ^1.4.0 caused this problem, It appears to be a problem with create-react-app, as described in this GitHub issue: facebook/create-react-app#11889.

Since the issue is still open, some fixed pull requests have been submitted, but create-react-app (cra) has not yet adopted them.

It may be necessary to revert to apisauce@3.0.0 until the aforementioned GitHub issue is resolved. In apisauce@3.0.0, axios@0.27.2 is used, which does not have this problem.
