How is the function exported? Is it a default export or a named one?

Question

RepoPilot · Accepted Answer

The function is a **default export**.

In [index.js:L1-L10], the module declares:

```
export default function escapeStringRegexp(string) {
```

This is confirmed in a few other places:

- The `package.json` sets `"exports": "./index.js"` [package.json:L1-L40], and since `"type": "module"` is set, this is loaded as an ES module.
- The TypeScript declaration file mirrors this with `export default function escapeStringRegexp(string: string): string;` [index.d.ts:L16-L17].
- Usage in tests and docs consistently imports it as a default export, e.g. `import escapeStringRegexp from './index.js';` [test.js:L2] and `import escapeStringRegexp from './index.js';` [index.test-d.ts:L2], as well as in the README example `import escapeStringRegexp from 'escape-string-regexp';` [readme.md:L16].

There is no named export alongside it — the single function is the module's only export, and consumers must import it as the default.
