Publishing ESM

[43081j]

Most consumers are running in node (without a bundler) so this has been fine so far as CJS

However, it is the only one of the many alternatives that doesn't ship modern modules. So it would be good to solve that

To avoid having to ship a dual package (which would mean doubling the package size), my suggestion is basically:

• maintain a 1.x branch which ships as CJS
• maintain main which ships as ESM
• all changes go into both branches until a majority of consumers are using the ESM version

Id be happy to help out if needed

Something like TanStack Config, suggested here: #59 (comment)

Would fix this and allow dual-publishing. I can make a PR for this if wanted

i'd be cautious of publishing a dual package, especially since require(esm) will soon be in all LTS node versions and typescript

if it was up to me, i'd still opt for going esm-only and keeping any CJS/older-node consumers on the old version (but backporting fixes if we ever needed any). its a fairly simple package so i can't see many fixes being needed, if any

just my opinion though ofc
