Modules

ES2015 modules are supported in CoffeeScript, with very similar import and export syntax:

codeFor('modules')

Dynamic import is also supported, with mandatory parentheses:

codeFor('dynamic_import', true)

Note that the CoffeeScript compiler does not resolve modules; writing an import or export statement in CoffeeScript will produce an import or export statement in the resulting output. It is your responsibility to transpile this ES2015 syntax into code that will work in your target runtimes.

Also note that any file with an import or export statement will be output without a top-level function safety wrapper; in other words, importing or exporting modules will automatically trigger bare mode for that file. This is because per the ES2015 spec, import or export statements must occur at the topmost scope.
