Module Resolution & Format Lookup

Motivating Examples

A package (react-dom) has a dedicated entrypoint `react-dom/server for code that isn't compatible with a browser environment.
A package (angular) exposes multiple independent APIs, modeled via import paths like angular/common/http.
A package (lodash) allows to import individual functions, e.g. lodash/map.
A package is exclusively exposing an ESM interface.
A package is exclusively exposing a CJS interface.
A package is exposing both an ESM and a CJS interface.

Moving to `async`/`await`

`waterfall`

function before(cb) {
  waterfall(
    f1,
    f2,
 cb

Installing project specific tools like react-native globally is yucky. Even when it's just thin CLI wrappers. Unfortunately react-native actively breaks local npm binaries by forcing a broken bin stub into each project. So if you added ./node_modules/.bin to your $PATH, every attempt of running react-native inside of a project will fail with an annoying (and wrong) claim that you installed react-native globally.

The easiest solution I found so far:

npm install --save react-native-cli in your React Native project

	'use strict';

	const ivm = require('isolated-vm');

	function handleParseJob(code) {
	return new ivm.ExternalCopy(JSON.parse(code), { transferOut: true });
	}

	function transferInExternalCopy(copy) {
	return copy.copy({ transferIn: true });

	// V8 6.2 required
	'use strict';

	const fs = require('fs');
	const { Session } = require('inspector');
	const { promisify } = require('util');

	const session = new Session();
	if (session != null) {
	session.connect();
