There are two different types of export, named and default

export - JavaScript | MDN https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Statements/export

The export statement is used when creating JavaScript modules to export functions, objects, or primitive values from the module so they can be used by other programs with the import statement.

Exported modules are in strict mode whether you declare them as such or not. The export statement cannot be used in embedded scripts.

export { name1, name2, …, nameN };

export { variable1 as name1, variable2 as name2, …, nameN };

export let name1, name2, …, nameN; // also var, const

export let name1 = …, name2 = …, …, nameN; // also var, const

export function FunctionName(){...}

export class ClassName {...}

export default expression;

export default function (…) { … } // also class, function*

export default function name1(…) { … } // also class, function*

export { name1 as default, … };

export * from …;

export { name1, name2, …, nameN } from …;

export { import1 as name1, import2 as name2, …, nameN } from …;

export { default } from …;

nameN: Identifier to be exported (so that it can be imported via import in another script).

Link to sectionDescription

There are two different types of export, named and default. You can have multiple named exports per module but only one default export. Each type corresponds to one of the above syntax:

Named exports:

// exports a function declared earlier

export { myFunction }; 

// exports a constant

export const foo = Math.sqrt(2);

Default exports (function):
```
export default function() {}
```
Default exports (class):
```
export default class {}
```

Named exports are useful to export several values. During the import, it is mandatory to use the same name of the corresponding object.

But a default export can be imported with any name for example:

let k; export default k = 12; // in file test.js

import m from './test' // note that we have the freedom to use import m instead of import k, because k was default export

console.log(m);        // will log 12

The following syntax does not export a default export from the imported module:

export * from …;

If you need to export the default, write the following instead:

export {default} from 'mod';

Link to sectionUsing named exports

In the module, we could use the following code:

// module "my-module.js"

function cube(x) {

  return x * x * x;

}

const foo = Math.PI + Math.SQRT2;

var graph = {

    options:{

        color:'white',

        thickness:'2px'

    },

    draw: function(){

        console.log('From graph draw function');

    }

}

export { cube, foo, graph };

This way, in another script, we could have:

//You should use this script in html with the type module ,

//eg ''<script type="module" src="demo.js"></script>",

//open the page in a httpserver,otherwise there will be a CORS policy error.

//script demo.js

import { cube, foo, graph } from 'my-module';

graph.options = {

    color:'blue',

    thickness:'3px'

};

graph.draw();

console.log(cube(3)); // 27

console.log(foo);    // 4.555806215962888

Link to sectionUsing the default export

If we want to export a single value or to have a fallback value for our module, we could use a default export:

// module "my-module.js"

export default function cube(x) {

  return x * x * x;

}

Then, in another script, it will be straightforward to import the default export:

import cube from 'my-module';

console.log(cube(3)); // 27

Note that it is not possible to use var, let or const with export default.

Link to sectionModule Redirects

If we want to export default, and star from another module (effectively creating a "redirect"):

// module "redirect-module.js"

export {default} from './other-module';

export * from './other-module';
