Use ES6 in webpack prod config

[rafayepes]

It is confusing to see the dev config in ES6, like all the code and then the prod config in ES5.

Any particular reason for that?

Yes: I couldn't find a way to pass to the webpack bin (used by the npm run build script) a config written in ES6. On dev we don't use the bin so we require the config in a node.js script, after babel/register hook has been installed. Anyway it's a good point, going to ask on the webpack's gitter chat...

What about doing something similar to that?

https://github.com/gpbl/isomorphic500/blob/31e91c650c4b99d91424ecbef6e13531ab50e9a1/src/config.js

and load babel/register in this config?

[gpbl]

Yes I was thinking to that option, but perhaps keeping the config (and /webpack/utils) in ES5 would be a better compromise.

[rafayepes]

Yeah. Maybe just less tricky and it will be more consistent that having one
config in ES6 and another in ES5.
