I have declared two variables with the same name using the const keyword in two different javascript files. But still I get an error when I import both the files together to a web page.
I know that var declares global scope variables which would conflict but I had heard that const and let do not bahave like that.
How do I fix this.
If you're just looking for an easy solution, having code blocks in the files will work, either as a self executing function or just a plain block:
// On both files
(function(){
const x = 123;
})();
// or just a code block
{
const x = 456;
}
However, this is usually fixed by using a preprocessing tool like webpack (and organizing your code into modules to keep things separate), or at least having different classes and functions.
