how do i prevent typescriptvue from renaming classes with underscore on build?

The problem was with the index.ts which looked like this:

.
.
export {WorkItem} from './WorkItem'
export {ReqItem} from './ReqItem'
.
.

changing it to

.
.
export * from './WorkItem'
export * from './ReqItem'
.
.

as described here resolved the issue.
