unable to use x-intersect

[nsursock]

Hello I'm having troubles making x-intersect work. I have a NEAT stack install (netlify, eleventy, alpine, tailwind). I installed alpine via npm and in the .eleventy.js file (config), I have this line to copy alpine from node modules to static dir "./node_modules/alpinejs/dist/cdn.min.js": "./static/js/alpine.js"
In the alpine file, at the end there is this code:
// packages/alpinejs/builds/cdn.js window.Alpine = src_default; queueMicrotask(() => { src_default.start(); });
But I need to do this before start:
import intersect from "@alpinejs/intersect"; Alpine.plugin(intersect);

I tried using document.addEventListener("alpine:init", () => {}) but it didn't work.

I'm a bit lost. How do I initialise intersect and use it?

Does the script alpine is being bundled in have defer on it?

There isn’t enough info there to know how it should be configured but if you’re installing via npm you should be able to import Alpine and call Alpine.plugin(intersect) before you call Alpine.start()
