Shimport is a tiny JavaScript shim for using module import and export syntax in browsers that do not fully support native modules. It allows developers to work with JavaScript modules, including dynamic import behavior, across a wider range of browser environments. The project is intentionally small, making it useful when developers need compatibility without adding a large bundling or transpilation layer. Shimport helps bridge modern module syntax with older runtime support expectations. It can be useful for demos, lightweight applications, educational examples, and compatibility experiments. Its main value is making native-style JavaScript modules more broadly usable with minimal overhead.

Features

  • Small JavaScript module shim
  • Import and export syntax support
