#javascript module idea: browserify transform to transpile CommonJS modules to ES6 modules. use in production piped to rollupify, #winning.

because ES6 modules are a terrible idea, but http://rollupjs.org/  seems cool and i'd love to use it with CJS and browserify.

@yoshuawuyts think of all the bytes you'd save! ;) (this is me saying i'm not sure i can fussed to write this module myself)

haha, but only if you have fat deps :p - could prob save some bytes, but https://github.com/yoshuawuyts/choo/blob/master/examples/mailbox/client.js … would prob not work in ES6 :(

why wouldn't it work? the point would be to remove unnecessary module closures (38+ bytes per module) and unused module exports

Oh, I meant the inline require() statements in the example I linked

still statically analyzable, otherwise browserify wouldn't be able to traverse the require tree. as opposed to `require(stuff)`

you could pull it out as a top-level ES6 module import to a variable, then replace require with the var, and it'd be the same.
