How do you use ky as a CDN without the UMD build? Is it possible?

[jc-camosun]

I've been using ky as a CDN (there's a good reason) link and now with the UMD build dropped, I can't use it anymore in the browser. Or is there a way?

You can still load Ky from a CDN in the browser. You just need to use ES modules to do so.

There are two ways of doing this:

1. Put your app in a <script type="module"> tag and then import Ky from the CDN and use it directly. The great thing about this is that it avoids using any global variables.

   // my-app.js
   import ky from 'https://unpkg.com/ky';

2. Alternatively, in the HTML before your app, add a separate <script type="module"> tag that imports Ky and adds it to the global scope so that you don't have to modify your existing app.

   // ky-global.js
   import ky from 'https://unpkg.com/ky';
   globalThis.ky = ky;
