This allows us to use ES module syntax (import/export), and any other
modern javascript features that are not yet supported in node. The
babel config targets node version 14. Basically this just converts ES
modules to common js, since node already supports most modern
javascript.
In development mode, we use babel-node to start the server. This
transpiles the code at runtime. So you don't need to worry about a
build step when running in dev mode.
For production mode, the code is transpiled at build time to the
`dist` directory.
Instead of including `require('dotenv').config()` at the top of the
entry point, we now load dotenv via the command line.
