When to use it?

If you building an universal react app, you might want to require raw file in the Node.js, like import html from '../assets/test.html' or import markdown file for react-markdown component.

⚠️ If you want to use both raw-module-require-hook and Typescript. You shouldn't include your raw file use es module.

incorrent:

import html form '../assets/test.html';

import * as html form '../assets/test.html';

corrent:

const html = require('../assets/test.html');

Because this hook turn html file to module.exports = 'some html content', and tsc can not transform this commonjs module currently.
