What is the difference between using 

import { Devices } from '../models/devices';

and 

import Devices from '../models/devices';

I haven't been able to google this one out yet.

I believe the first is a Named-Import and the second is a Default-Binding.

In simple English, I think the first one means "from all the stuff that was exported in ../models/devices, import only the Devices object". While the second one means "whatever is the default export of ../models/devices, import it as the name Devices.

See the standard. I must admit, though, I'm not 100% my interpretation is correct. That document was not written for mere humans to read, it seems... :/
