[Quoting the project’s readme:]

With import maps now supported by all major browsers, ES Module Shims entirely bypasses processing for the 74% of users with native import maps support.

For the remaining users, the [...] CSP-compatible shim kicks in to rewrite module specifiers driven by the Web Assembly ES Module Lexer.

The following modules features are polyfilled:

• Import maps polyfill.
• Dynamic import() shimming when necessary (e.g. in older Firefox versions).
• import.meta and import.meta.url.
• JSON and CSS modules with import assertions (when enabled).
• <link rel="modulepreload"> is shimmed in browsers without import maps support.
