Join the AI Workshop and learn to build real-world apps with AI. A hands-on, practical program to level up your skills.


You can rename any import, for convenience, using as:

A file can export the value a

const a = 1

export { a }

test.js

but you want to use it in another file with a more descriptive name, for example:

import { a as ageOfMyCat } from './test.js'

console.log(ageOfMyCat) //1
