<h1>Synthetic Module Records</h1>

<emu-note type="editor">This Synthetic Module Records specification text comes from the <a href="https://github.com/tc39/proposal-javascript-standard-library/">JavaScript Standard Library proposal</a> and was written by Domenic Denicola. A version of this text exists <a href="https://heycam.github.io/webidl/#synthetic-module-records">in WebIDL</a>.

<p>A <dfn>Synthetic Module Record</dfn> is used to represent information about a module that is defined by specifications. Its exports are derived from a pair of lists, of string keys and of ECMAScript values. The set of exported names is static, and determined at creation time (as an argument to CreateSyntheticModule), while the set of exported values can be changed over time using SetSyntheticModuleExport. It has no imports or dependencies.</p>

<emu-note>A Synthetic Module Record could be used for defining a variety of module types: for example, built-in modules, or JSON modules, or CSS modules.</emu-note>
