Using ECMAScript 6 today. Part II
summary
Concrete migration details and working examples: arrow functions reduce boilerplate and already run in Firefox; classes and modules replace framework-specific inheritance and unify code sharing; maps/sets solve object-as-map bugs and de-duplicate arrays; generators + yield let async file reads look synchronous and integrate with promises. Mentions tools that actually compile today (Traceur, 6to5, TypeScript) and package tooling (npm, jspm, webpack/browserify). ES6 feature set is frozen and browsers are steadily adding support, with formal publication due June 2015.
