Distribution in ES6 modules format

See original GitHub issue

The project website and npm page (in usage examples) suggests that the package is distributed in es6 module format, but that doesn’t seem to be the case. Doing npm install --save ttag and putting import { t, ngettext, msgid } from 'ttag' in my sites javascript makes the browser go The requested module '../../node_modules/ttag/dist/index.js' does not provide an export named 't'.

As far as I can see it makes sense to use rollup instead of webpack for ttag distribution. It seems like it can easily distribute es6 modules format + produces smaller bundle size.

I am also for the first way.

So, to fix this issue we need to:

Provide es6 imports support for our dependencies: dedent, and plural-forms. We can put dedent right inside the ttag repo. Not sure that we can do the same with plural-forms.
Also we must upgrade babel-plugin-ttag to recognize ttag/es6 imports.
