Replace Webpack with Rollup, and start using ES2016 syntax #705

Closed freakboy3742 closed 4 years ago

freakboy3742 commented 6 years ago

This is a major refactor, replacing Webpack with Rollup.

Rollup's configuration is much easier to work with, and produces smaller output, faster.

The syntax maps are also much more reliable, and in the territory of "they just work", rather than requiring a whole separate webserver serving JS content.

Lastly, this patch packages Batavia as a Python package (as well as a JS one), so that end users can just "pip install batavia" and get a Python-compatible deployment. It currently only includes the pieces for a Django deployment, but it's really just a staticfiles directory, so any other deployment should also be possible.
