Module System

The module system is how Bliss code is organized and shared across files and packages. Bliss provides two distinct keywords for bringing code into scope: import and use.

The Distinction

While both keywords bring code into scope, they serve fundamentally different purposes:

• import reaches outward — it brings in code from an external package.
• use reaches inward — it brings in code from within the current project.

This distinction is intentional. At any point in a Bliss file, it is immediately clear whether a dependency is external or internal based solely on the keyword used.

Scope Rules

Both import and use follow the same scoping rule — the last segment of the path is what enters scope. This applies consistently regardless of how deep the path is.

What's Covered

Import — how external packages are brought into a Bliss project.

Use — how files within the current project are brought into scope, and how the project root governs all paths.
