Angular 8 - Lazy loading modules : Error TS1323: Dynamic import is only supported when '--module' flag is 'commonjs' or 'esNext'

Question

When I updated Angular from 7 to Angular 8, getting error for lazy loading modules

I have tried the options, which are there in the angular upgradation guide

Just adding to @Tony's anwser, you might also need to do the same (change to "module": "esnext" ) in the tsconfig.app.json. In my case the tsconfig.json was already using esnext as the module but the tsconfig.app.json was still using es2015 and that caused this error.
