You can read generally about the module specifications here, for full browser support youโ€™d need to use a bundler like Parcel, Webpack, Rollup, etc.

TypeScript adds a namespace keyword which is essentially just syntax sugar that compiles to JavaScript modules namespaced via the ES6 module system, or if you need full browser support and are compiling to ES5, itโ€™ll compile to a method similar to what youโ€™ve shown above.

Also, where did you get your user pic here? I've been looking to create one of my own & I like that style.
