Use 6to5 transform instead of ReactTools transform about react-starter-kit HOT 6 CLOSED

@dmnd, yep, good suggestion! Do you use 6to5 at Khan Academy? I'm wondering, if there are any known issues with it?

We don't use it at KA; we use ReactTools like you are.

But I'm doing a side project based off this repo and I ended up wanting more ES6. I have 6to5 running and it seems to work fine. My code isn't yet in a state to send you PRs, though I really should get to that.

+1 good suggestion

6to5 and esnext has merged efforts : http://6to5.org/blog/2015/01/12/6to5-esnext/ so it's a good suggestion

I second this.

6to5 comes with some caveats if you're trying to support legacy browsers like IE8 and below, it seems like the caveats are outweighed by the goodness that 6to5 brings.

Just have replaced the original JSX transpiler with 6to5. See webpack.config.js
