Questions About Remote Module Loader

[seikosantana]

Hi, so far I've been using this remote-module-loader and remote-component and felt benefits of them.

I'd like to ask some questions or have some discussions, if you don't mind, about remote modules in general since I couldn't find much information related to loading modules remotely. I found these things interesting and I'm very curious about them. I'm sorry if my questions are common sense. I'm still learning and haven't got much experience with JS and webpack.

• Why does remote modules have to be CommonJS? Why is it not ESM? Are there limitations in ESM so that it is not possible to be used as remote module?
• Is there any way or possibilities, at least theoretically, to enable hot-reloading during development?
• Is there any way or possibilities, at least theoretically, to consume generated sourcemaps for easier debugging?
• Are remote-module-loader and remote-component accepting contributions?

Thanks a lot for your time
