How to use module import in nodejs

Issue #752

Use esm

npm install esm

In our code, import as normal

const fs = require('fs');
// intended to be run after babel, and in ./dist folder
import factory from 'data'
const shell = require('shelljs')

Then use esm to convert

{
  "name": "generator",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "main": "index.js",
  "scripts": {
    "start": "npx babel index.js --out-file dist/index.js && node -r esm dist/index.js"
  }
}
