How do I import libraries into my JavaScript-based UWP app service?

Question

I'm writing a UWP app in JavaScript. I have an App Service declared in package.appxmanifest. By pointing its StartPage attribute to a JavaScript source file, I can control what gets executed.

Within that .js file, is it possible to import third-party libraries?

Answer 1

Use the importScripts method. For example:

importScripts("/node_modules/jquery/dist/jquery.min.js");
