Explore the transition to ES6 modules in browsers and learn about modular version-managed front-end architecture in this JSConf 2014 talk. Discover how jspm provides package management for JavaScript built around ES6 modules and the dynamic ES6 module loader. Understand the process of making ES6 modules work dynamically in browsers through a polyfill, enabling existing module formats to work with the same loader, and adding offline build workflows for production. Learn about the command-line package manager for modular dependency management and the addition of a CDN with server-push for install-free version-managed module loading in the browser. Gain insights into the almost-magical capabilities of jspm and its impact on front-end development.
