using requirejs to load npm packages

by

Require.JS is for loading AMD modules.

Node.js modules are either ECMAScript modules (which use import and export) or CommonJS modules (which use require and module.exports).

Even though both AMD and CommonJS modules use a function named require they are, in general, not compatible. (It is possible to write a module so that it meets the requirements of both AMD and CommonJS but this isn’t too common).

If you want to use Node.js modules in the browser then use a bundler like Webpack or Parcel (but note that they cannot provide APIs that are specific to Node.js, such as the fs module for reading and writing to and from the file system).
