# 04. Cyclic Dependencies

ES6 modules support cyclic dependencies automatically:

```javascript
//------ a.js ------
import { bar } from "b"; // (i)
export function foo() {
  bar(); // (ii)
}

//------ b.js ------
import { foo } from "a"; // (iii)
export function bar() {
  if (Math.random()) {
    foo(); // (iv)
  }
}
```

This code works, because imports are views on exports. That means that even unqualified imports (such as `bar` in line `ii` and foo in line `iv`) are indirections that refer to the original data.

Thus, in the face of cyclic dependencies, it doesn’t matter whether you access a named `export` via an unqualified `import` or via its module: There is an indirection involved in either case and it always works.
