Following jest's official docs to enable ES Modules here: https://jestjs.io/docs/ecmascript-modules

I've followed step 1 by inserting the following config into package.json:

  "jest": {
    "transform": {}
  },

And then running the command they list in step 2

yarn node --experimental-vm-modules $(yarn bin jest)

Results in the following output/exception:

warning package.json: No license field
yarn node v1.22.5
warning package.json: No license field
C:\Users\david\source\repos\algo-ds\node_modules\.bin\jest:2

          ^^^^^^^
