As you have correctly mentioned - in the msal.d.ts there are no exports - its not a module, and therefore you should not try importing.

Instead you can use it like this:

/// 

const userAgentApplication = new Msal.UserAgentApplication("your_client_id", null, (errorDes, token, error, tokenType) =>
    {

    });

Note that even in readme they specify only one way of using their library - by including script tag, not by importing module. And further looking into their source code shows they are not using modules as well.
