Hi, how can I import or install npm packages in a node? I want to use crypto 
import crypto from 'node:crypto';

const hmac = crypto
  .createHmac('sha256', 'your-secret-key')
  .update('some-string')
  .digest('base64');
import crypto from 'node:crypto';

const hmac = crypto
  .createHmac('sha256', 'your-secret-key')
  .update('some-string')
  .digest('base64');

@ehsueh crypto is an inbuilt nodejs function, you don't need to import it. Also, you can use the AI builder (compass).

Oh ok!! Thank you!! What if it was a package not included?

Use named imports for other packages, import fs from "fs"; - example if you'll build with the inbuilt AI builder (compass), you can eliminate all these issues.
