fetch

✓ import fetch from 'itsa-fetch'

✗ const { fetch } = require('itsa-fetch')

itsa-fetch is an ES module with a default export. CommonJS require will not work without a bundler or dynamic import.

fetch

✓ const fetch = require('itsa-fetch').default

✗ const fetch = require('itsa-fetch')

In CommonJS, you must explicitly access the default export.

fetch

✓ import fetch from 'itsa-fetch'

✗ import { fetch } from 'itsa-fetch'

The library exports a single function as default, not a named export.

Shows basic GET request using default export of itsa-fetch with async/await.

import fetch from 'itsa-fetch'; async function getData() { const response = await fetch('https://api.example.com/data'); const data = await response.json(); console.log(data); } getData().catch(console.error);
