NativeScript Vue - VueX not working: cannot read property getters of undefined

Question

I have a VueX module named auth.

Here is the module:

export const auth = {
  namespaced: true,
  state: {
   user: null,
   status: {
    loggedIn: true
   }
  },
  actions: {

  },
  mutations: {

  },
  getters: {
    currentUser(state) {
      return state.user;
    },
    loggedIn(state) {
      return state.status.loggedIn;
    }
  } 
}

I've left out the actions and mutations for the sake of brevity. As you can see I have getters clearly defined. I register the module in my store.ts file like so:

import Vue from 'vue';
import Vuex from 'vuex';
import { auth } from './store/auth.module.js';

Vue.use(Vuex);

export default new Vuex.Store({
  state: {

  },
  mutations: {

  },
  actions: {

  },
  modules: {
    auth
  }
});

Now I wish to access the getters in a component so I tried mapGetters(['auth/loggedIn']) & mapGetters('auth', ['loggedIn']) in computed however I get errors for both. Here's what it looks like:

computed: {
    ...mapGetters(['auth/loggedIn'])
}

I even tried accessing the getter directly via this.$store.getters['auth/loggedIn'] however this did not work.

Any idea about what could be the issue?

EDIT: Here's the error after i run the tns preview command:

The issue was the import statement import Vue from "vue" in file store.ts

I changed it to import Vue from "nativescript-vue" and now things seem to work.

I've created an issue here https://github.com/NativeScript/NativeScript/issues/8570 as the wrong import is added by following suggested getting started steps in the official website here: https://nativescript-vue.org/en/docs/getting-started/quick-start/
