+ Synthetic Module Records
+
+ A Synthetic Module Record is used to represent information about a module that is defined by specifications. Its exported names are statically defined at creation as an argument to CreateSyntheticModule, while their corresponding values can change over time using SetSyntheticModuleExport. It has no imports or dependencies.
+
+ A Synthetic Module Record could be used for defining a variety of module types: for example, built-in modules, or JSON modules, or CSS modules.
+
+ In addition to the fields defined in Synthetic Module Records have the additional fields listed in . Each of these fields is initially set in CreateSyntheticModule.
+
+

+ | Field Name |
+ Value Type |
+ Meaning |
+
+
+
+ | [[ExportNames]] |
+ a List of Strings |
+ The names of the exports of the module. This list does not contain duplicates. |
+
+
+ | [[EvaluationSteps]] |
+ an Abstract Closure |
+ The initialization logic to perform upon evaluation of the module, taking the Synthetic Module Record as its sole argument. These will usually set up the exported values, by using SetSyntheticModuleExport. It must not modify [[ExportNames]]. It may return an abrupt completion. |

+ If _moduleRequest_.[[Attributes]] has an entry _entry_ such that _entry_.[[Key]] is *"type"* and _entry_.[[Value]] is *"json"*, the host environment must perform FinishLoadingImportedModule(_referrer_, _moduleRequest_, _payload_, _result_), where _result_ is either the Completion Record returned by an invokation of ParseJSONModule or a throw completion.

The operation must treat _payload_ as an opaque value to be passed through to FinishLoadingImportedModule.
The actual process performed is host-defined, but typically consists of performing whatever I/O operations are necessary to load the appropriate Module Record. Multiple different (_referrer_, _moduleRequest_.[[Specifier]], _moduleRequest_.[[Attributes]]) triples may map to the same Module Record instance. The actual mapping semantics is host-defined but typically a normalization process is applied to _specifier_ as part of the mapping process. A typical normalization process would include actions such as expansion of relative and abbreviated path specifiers.

+ The above text implies that hosts *must* support JSON modules imported with `type: "json"` (if it completes normally), but it doesn't prohibit hosts from supporting JSON modules imported with no type specified.
