Exporting from one file index.js like this: export const categoriesObj = new Object(); and trying to import from another index.js file like this: import { categoriesObj } from "../app/index.js";, but I get an Uncaught ReferenceError: (variable from the other file) is not defined because instead of just importing the categoriesObj, I think is importing the whole file. Currently I'm using webpack and babel. Both index.js files have separate bundle files. The folder structure looks like this:

• dist
  • bundle1.js
  • bundle2.js
• src
  • app
    • index.js
  • history
    • index.js

What I have tried is:

• Add "type": "module" in package.json file.
• Added babel-loader. Thought it was some problem with ES6 modules.
• renamed ../app/index.js to index.mjs.

What I'm trying to do is to import an object which is generated in another file so I can use it on this other file. Hope this makes sense. I've been stuck in this for days. Thanks for reading!
