add an apline plug in before the apline load

[sxshateri]

im trying to add the alpine-clipboard plugin to the project that I use TALL in and I have to add it before the alpine starts/loads to avoid the declaring errors in the console but since there is no alpine imports and property declare in the app.js, I'm not really sure how to do that. anyone who can help would be much appreciated.

currently by just adding the import Clipboard from "@ryangjchandler/alpine-clipboard" and Alpine.plugin(Clipboard) I get the following error in the console:

Uncaught (in promise) ReferenceError: $clipboard is not defined
    at eval (eval at generateFunctionFromString (module.esm.js:1)

after hours of digging found out the alpine js was imported to the bootstrap.js then it was imported to the laravel mix and i just don't get why? and most of all why there is no mention if this unorthodox way of doing things in the TALL documentation (which doesn't exist).
i literally know nobody to import alpine into bootstrap.js and then requiring it in the laravel mix because orders of requiring and importing packages matter.

Feel free to PR the package and move Alpine to app.js.
