Hello! I've been encountering this problem every time I try to create an index for my database. I've been using AceBase on the browser-side with IndexedDB, and recreated this problem on Firefox, Chrome, and Opera. Here are the steps to recreate this problem:

npx create-react-app test-acebase --template typescript
Edit App.tsx to include these lines:

function App() {
  const db = AceBase.WithIndexedDB("test-db");
  db.indexes.create("users", "name");

  return (
  ...

npm start
The error DataIndex is not a constructor should show up on the browser.

Is indexing not meant to be used on the browser side? Or is there something else going on here? Thank you!

Indexing is not yet available in the browser implementation, currently only for binary databases in node.js. It's on my todo list, can't say when I'll be able to build it though.
