CommonJS CommonJS — require() works on every Node.js version we test
is-data-view ships CommonJS only. require("is-data-view") works on every Node.js version we test (18, 20, 22, 24 and 26) and in Bun. The package declares Node.js >= 0.4. import "is-data-view" 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.
