It's using traceur and building the modules to CJS, the project uses other non transpiled CJS modules.
The only thing traceur could do here is compile the imports into a check for the named export `default` and use that if it exists. If it doesn't then simply return the CJS module object. Here is the output from traceur https://github.com/briandipalma/global-compiler/blob/master/out/index.js The relevant line would be `var minimist = require('minimist');` For default import from a CJS module you'd need to output ` var minimist = require('minimist'); if (minimist.default) { minimist = minimist.default; } ` Is that what you think traceur should do?
