Ah, thanks! I'd never encountered these before.

It seems like a handy way to make my code match the code in documentation that assumes a Node environment.

No problem! There's also a polyfill if you need to support Safari:

Thankfully iOS 16.4 will be natively supporting import maps so fingers crossed this might be easier soon
