React and JQuery plugin ( $ is not defined)

Question

While there have been many answers to this here, it does not seem to be working yet.

• Jquery in React is not defined
• https://scriptverse.academy/tutorials/reactjs-using-jquery-with-react.html

I'm trying to use the plugin 'jq-timeline' in my project. I tried to do that:

import $ from 'jquery'; 
import timelines from 'jq-timeline/dist/jquery.timeline'

But I'm still getting an error

ReferenceError: $ is not defined

Edit: If I remove the plugin import, and print $, I see that it exists.

Edit2:

Slove it with:

import $ from 'jquery'
window.$ = $;
const timeline = require('jq-timeline')

What do I need to do to view the timeline?
