No worries mate. JS can be a b\*\*ch to pick up.

What you really need is to move those module-global variables into the class definition, so they are class-instance properties.

Then change all the access from `$picker` to `this.$picker` etc.

Then Bob’s your uncle! 🕶

P.S. I could have made the changes myself and submit a PR, but I got scared of forking the entire Discourse repo just to test such small changes…
