Using ES6 modules in the browser [duplicate]

Question

I am trying to export and import objects in the browser using ES6 modules.

I have tried

import { options } from 'options';

but I get the error Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token import.

Then I tried transpiling it, but now I receive the error Uncaught ReferenceError: require is not defined.

Is it not possible to use modules in the browser?

You need webpack or browserify or something that bundles for the browser. — sdgluck

I am using babel-standalone to transpile it. Shouldn't it work like webpack and browserify? — Jamgreen

ES6 Modules are not implemented yet... https://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Statements/import — fistuks

You might want to look into http://jspm.io/ it's based on system.js.

Hope that helps..
