Error trying to use top-level await?
See original GitHub issue> require('meriyah').parseModule('const foo = (await bar)', {next: true})
Uncaught: [ParseError [SyntaxError]: [1:18]: 'Await' may not be used as an identifier in this context] {
index: 18,
line: 1,
column: 18,
description: "[1:18]: 'Await' may not be used as an identifier in this context",
loc: { line: 1, column: 18 }
}
I found https://github.com/meriyah/meriyah/issues/29 but it looks like that issue may have been closed without implementation.
Top-level await is now stage 3, and supported in Node.js v14+.
