Fork adding support for ES modules

[drjeffjackson]

I have made a fork that adds an --esm switch that generates an ES modules version of the app. Are you accepting pull requests, and if so, would you be interested in this one?

Hi @drjeffjackson! Feel free to do a PR with the changes 👍

[drjeffjackson]

Thanks, @UlisesGascon! PR #316 submitted.

PR #314 adds Python 2 to the runner, which should fix some of the failing tests in #316.

How do I make sure I'm installing your fork and not the original? Both have the same package name.

EDIT: The README of your fork is literally copy-paste from this repo's README.

My fork is in pull request #316. It is still waiting to be approved for merging, but you're welcome to clone it from https://github.com/drjeffjackson/expressjs-generator/tree/esm.

EDIT: The README of your fork is literally copy-paste from this repo's README.

The README of the esm branch of my clone of the repo has a slightly modified README that adds documentation of a new --es6 switch.

Thank you for clarifying, but I don't believe that it will be merged. There was a similar six year old PR that was not merged. #200

I've just made a change requested by @ljharb (removed node='module' from package.json). Perhaps that will make a difference.
