Last verified Sep 9, 2026 against ember-cli-app-version@7.0.0.

ember-cli-app-version ships CommonJS only. require("ember-cli-app-version") works on every Node.js version we test (18, 20, 22, 24 and 26) and in Bun. The package declares Node.js >= 18. import "ember-cli-app-version" also works because Node.js and Bun can import CommonJS from ES modules, but only the default export is guaranteed; named imports depend on Node's static analysis of the module.

## What to do

1. require("ember-cli-app-version") works on every Node.js version we test (18, 20, 22, 24 and 26) and in Bun. The package declares Node.js >= 18.
2. From ES modules use the default import: import emberCliAppVersion from "ember-cli-app-version"; then destructure. Named imports only work when Node.js can statically detect the exports.
3. TypeScript: no types are available for ember-cli-app-version; declare the module yourself if you need them.
