Maintainer Update

For any new readers of this issue, per #543 (comment), you can use styled-components/macro instead of babel-plugin-styled-components, which will work.

Current Behavior

I'm using babel-plugin-styled-components to annotate styled-components with CSS classes to more easily debug them in the browser's inspector.

Expected behavior

I'd expect this plugin to do something. Namely, do what it says on the tin. And it does when I run storybook for our project. But it doesn't when I'm done and want to build my project through tsdx.

Suggested solution(s)

Perhaps babel plugins ought to be merged differently. I suspect the plugins from .babelrc are executed too early or too late. I find it massively complicated to figure out what exactly is happening under the hood, and therefor I have no way of knowing how and when a babel plugin is executed, or supposed to be executed. But since the plugin itself does work, there must be an issue with how or when it's being called.

Additional context

Our project is based on React + styled-components in Storybook. In Storybook, babel-plugin-styled-components does it job beautifully. But in the tsdx build, it does not, and indeed, I cannot find any mention of the classnames that are supposed to be generated. Having or not having this plugin, literally makes not a byte of difference in the dist files that tsdx generates.
