make Esperanto easier to find #177

I'm not the best person to offer a solution for this but am letting you know Esperanto is hard to find.

I searched for hours looking for a tool like Esperanto. I looked at sources found in various repositories that didn't comprehensively solve my problem -things like umd, urequire, browser-pack, es6-module-transpiler etc.

Esperanto is the solution, but its hard to find. I came to it from this ycombinator page https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8197988

Agree! It's a well-kept secret. Not sure what the solution is - the website could probably be better, but I guess ultimately it's just a question of 'marketing', which I'm terrible at.

Having said that - and you probably don't want to hear this, having spent all that time trying to track down a solution - I'm curently working on a different ES6 module bundler called Rollup, which will eventually supersede Esperanto (or at least Esperanto's bundling logic will be replaced with Rollup internally). So whatever slim mindshare Esperanto has built up will become less relevant...
