node:path

node:path, node:path/posix, and node:path/win32 match Node’s path on every host, including matchesGlob.

Example

// path.mjs
import path from "node:path";

console.log(path.join("/srv", "app", "../static", "index.html"));
console.log(JSON.stringify(path.parse("/srv/static/index.html")));
console.log(path.relative("/srv/app", "/srv/static"));
console.log(path.win32.join("C:\\srv", "app"));
console.log(path.matchesGlob("src/lib/main.ts", "src/**/*.ts"));
