// for deno
import filedirname from 'https://unpkg.com/filedirname/edition-deno/index.ts'
// for web browsers
import filedirname from 'https://unpkg.com/filedirname'
// for node.js
import filedirname from 'filedirname'
// for commonjs
const filedirname = require('filedirname').default

// usage
const [file, dir] = filedirname()
console.log({ file, dir })

Via Error

// for deno
import filedirname from 'https://unpkg.com/filedirname/edition-deno/index.ts'
// for web browsers
import filedirname from 'https://unpkg.com/filedirname'
// for node.js
import filedirname from 'filedirname'
