# List of Built-in Services

Qbs provides the following built-in JavaScript extensions to simplify operations that are expected to be needed often in project files.

To gain access to the operations provided by a particular Service - for example, the File service - use the following statement at the top of your Qbs project file:

     import qbs.File

If you instead need to access the service from a JavaScript file, import it using the following statement at the top of your JavaScript file:

     var File = require("qbs.File");
