es6-browserify is a Browserify transform that runs es6-transpiler to transpile ES6 code into ES5. It is no longer maintained and relies on outdated tools such as es6-transpiler (also abandoned). Current stable version: 0.0.7. Release cadence: none. Key differentiators: it was an early attempt to integrate ES6 transpilation into Browserify before Babel became the standard. Not recommended for new projects.
