Web SDK, ability to import without `import * as Realm ...`

[mongodben]

Problem

right now, with the Realm Web SDK, you must import the entire SDK with an import alias in import statements, such as:

import * as Realm from "realm-web";

instead of this, i would like imports to behave as they do for the Node.js/React Native SDKs, so i can just do:

import Realm from "realm-web";

// or 
import { App } from "realm-web";

i would like to see this change for the following reasons:

• consistency with other JS SDK
• align with industry standards
• better performance via tree shaking

Solution

support the API:

import Realm from "realm-web";

How important is this improvement for you?

Would be a major improvement
