I'm trying to follow README step to install the transpiler

$ npm install -g https://git.squareup.com/javascript/es6-module-transpiler

But it outputs:

Is the server ok? I've tried this 12 hours ago from another network and the same issue occurred.

@amatiasq, that step in the README should probably be updated to use the pkg from npm directly. Just use npm install -g es6-module-transpiler and you should be fine.

Updated with the correct package!

I'm trying es6-module-transpiler but I get another error:

In the readme the module is es6-modules-transpiler (note the s in modules) but it throws 404 so I think it's a typo.
