Description

We have been shipping awesome features with i18n-js. But we also encountered some of the issues with esmodule when people were downloading our package and it didn't work well. We say that from here: https://github.com/fnando/i18n/issues/44#issuecomment-1385151034

But we also went with your appraoch too: https://github.com/fnando/i18n/issues/44#issuecomment-1362209550

I feel like i can help you raise a PR on this repo if you can show me how you want me to update it. I was thinking of going with the same approach as this guy suggested: https://github.com/fnando/i18n/issues/44#issuecomment-1385151034

But let me know what you think 👍
