Consuming a module

In ES2015, we use the import and from keywords to import one or several constructs like so:

import { SomeConstruct } from './module';

The imported file looks like this:

export let SomeConstruct = 5;

The basic operations involved, working with ES2015 modules, can be summarized as follows:

• Define a module and write the business logic of the module
• Export the constructs you want to make public
• Consume said module with an import keyword from a consumer file 

Of course there is a bit more to it than that, so let's look at what else you can do in the next subsection.
