@babel/plugin-syntax-module-string-names

Example

This plugin enables @babel/parser to parse

JavaScript

export { smile as "😄" } from "./emojis.js";

It requires @babel/parser@^7.12.0. When used with @babel/plugin-transform-modules-commonjs, the example above will be transformed as

JavaScript

const emojis = require("./emojis.js");
Object.defineProperty(exports, "__esModule", {
  value: true,
});

exports["😄"] = emojis.smile;

Note that it is not possible to transpile this syntax to ES2015-style imports and exports. They are supported in other module systems such as amd, systemjs and umd.
