'Use of const in strict mode': How can `node_modules/[sub_folder]` can compile to ES5 and not ES6?

Config from ionic info:



Cordova CLI: 8.0.0
Ionic Framework Version: 3.9.2
Ionic CLI Version: 2.2.3
Ionic App Lib Version: 2.2.1
Ionic App Scripts Version: 3.2.0
Node Version: v6.14.4



Working on some update on an Ionic 2 project previously running on an Android 4.4 device.



I ran in an error similar to this one: Ionic2 White screen error on deploy Android 4.2.2: Use of const in strict mode



After research I found that under my project in [project]/android/app/src/main/www/assets/build/vendor.js I have some const used to define variables in the file.



Variables marked with const seem to be all linked to directory node_module/gsap (this library).



My understanding is that gsap generate in ES6 format instead of ES5 format in the vendor.js file.



The GSAP version is 1.20.6.



Internet reading made me understood that through webpack or babel I could control that it generates in ES5 format.



But I don't understand how to do that in [project]/tsconfig.json file where it is stated:



{
"compilerOptions": {
...
"target": "es5",
...
}
"exclude": ["node_modules"],
...
}


Do you have an idea how to force ES5 in a defined sub node_modules directory like node_modules/gsap
