Transpile to ES5 about retry-axios HOT 5 CLOSED

Greetings! What type of environment are you trying to support? const is supported by any reasonably modern version of node or the browser:

• https://caniuse.com/#search=const
• https://node.green/#ES2015-bindings-const-basic-support

from retry-axios.

Hi @JustinBeckwith I believe an explanation can be found here https://facebook.github.io/create-react-app/docs/troubleshooting#npm-run-build-fails-to-minify. So all the applications which are built on top of the older create-react-app version or any similar environment will fail to build without library being transpiled into es5. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

@JustinBeckwith Anything that is blocking the merge of this PR #38 ?

from retry-axios.

I'm a little concerned about down-leveling compilation that far, as it does come at a perf cost - especially as we're getting closer to things like broad support for native async/await and such.

Reading that link you shared - it feels like the answer is to upgrade to a recent version of react-scripts, no? Just want to make sure we're making a change like this for the right reasons :)

Yes, I see your point @JustinBeckwith. Another solution is to create two different builds (es6 and es5).

We ended up downgrading to [email protected] which was in ES5.
So I think we can close the issue and PR?
