This release finally brings full [Hugo Modules](https://gohugo.io/hugo-modules/) support to [js.Build](https://gohugo.io/hugo-pipes/js/), curtsy of he new plugin API in the really, really fast [ESBuild](https://github.com/evanw/esbuild) by [@evanw](https://github.com/evanw).
Some notes on the improvements in this release:
* Now `js.Build` fully supports the virtual union file system in [Hugo Modules](https://gohugo.io/hugo-modules/). Any import inside your JavaScript components will resolve starting from the top component mount inside `/assets` with a fallback to the traditional "JS way" (`node_modules` etc.)
* You can now pass configuration data from the templates to your scripts via a new `params` option.
* Hugo now writes a `jsconfig.js` file inside `/assets` (you can turn it off) with import mappings to help editors such as VS Code with intellisense/navigation, which is especially useful when there is no common root and the source lives inside some temporary directory.
* We have also improved the build errors you get from `js.Build`. In server mode you will get a preview of the failing lines and in the console you will get a link to the location.
Read more about this in [the documentation](https://gohugo.io/hugo-pipes/js/), but a short usage example would look like:
In the template:
```go-html-template
{{ $js := resources.Get "js/main.js" | js.Build (dict "params" (dict "api" "https://example.org/api" ) }}
```
And then in a JavaScript component:
```js
import * as params from '@params';
// Wil resolve to one of `hello.{js,ts,tsx,jsx}` inside `assets/my/module`.
import { hello } from 'my/module/hello';
var api = params.api;
hello();
```
