Why are my js.erb views not working when using webpacker in Rails 6 with bootstrap?

Im trying to add som simple Ajax to my rails app. I am using Bootstrap with webpack. My webpack/environment.js file looks like this

const { environment } = require('@rails/webpacker')

const webpack = require('webpack')
environment.plugins.append('Provide',
  new webpack.ProvidePlugin({
    $: 'jquery',
    jQuery: 'jquery',
    Popper: ['popper.js', 'default']
  })
)

module.exports = environment

My javascript/packs/application.js looks like this

require("@rails/ujs").start()
require("turbolinks").start()
require("@rails/activestorage").start()
require("channels")
import 'bootstrap'
import 'src/main'
import 'style/main'

I'm trying to add some Ajax for one of my models in create.js.erb

$("#question-<%= @exam_option.exam_question.id %>-options").append("<%= escape_javascript render 'exam_option', option: @exam_option %>");
$('#add_option_modal').modal('hide');

When I try and add one of my options, I get the console error

ReferenceError: Can't find variable: $

I've searched for a solution and have been unsuccessful.

What am I doing wrong? Thank you!

Edit:

When I added Bootstrap to my app, I followed this guide . When following the guide, I installed bootstrap, jquery and popper.js with yarn

yarn add bootstrap jquery popper.js

The jQuery that Bootstrap uses is working correctly (such as tooltips). as per @mechnicov's answer, I tried changing my environment.js to

const webpack = require('webpack')
environment.plugins.append('Provide',
  new webpack.ProvidePlugin({
    $: 'jquery/src/jquery',
    jQuery: 'jquery/src/jquery',
    Popper: ['popper.js', 'default']
  })
)

and I added require("jquery") above import 'bootstrap' in my application.js

when I made those changes, my code in create.js.erb works correctly, but it makes my Bootstrap not function correctly and throw errors such as TypeError: ... $('[data-toggle="tooltip"]').tooltip() undefined.
