In this article, you will learn the difference between import and require in Javascript. These are used when you try to use an external module inside the page you are currently working on. The main difference is :

Import

import module from "module";
  • Lexical; will be sorted to the top of the current file.
  • Only can be called in the beginning.
  • Able to load partially (saving a lot of memories).

Require

const module = require("module");
  • Non-lexical; stay wherever it called.
  • Can be called anytime.
  • Not able to load partially.
