How to import functions from "back-end" js file to "front-end" js file

I have a Pinata IPFS js file with a "PinFileToIPFS" function inside; I'm wanting to call this function from another js file. The problem is that the Pinata js file uses "require()" to import its libraries, but my other "front-end" js file doesn't support node.js functions, and thus throws an error when loaded in the browser.

I need a way to import the PinFileToIPFS function into my other js file so it can be called upon completion of a certain front-end event. As stated before, I can't use require() to bring in the function, and if I try to use "import nameOfFunction from module;" to import the function I get the error:

Uncaught SyntaxError: Cannot use import statement outside a module.

I've seen similar questions asked, but none pertaining to my specific problem. I'm also new to programming, so any and all feedback is appreciated.
