gen-esm-wrapper is a versatile tool for generating ECMAScript module (ESM) wrappers around CommonJS (CJS) modules. This allows seamless integration of CJS packages into modern ESM-focused JavaScript projects. By automatically creating the necessary export statements, it eliminates the need for manual wrapping, streamlining the import process. Ideal for libraries still distributing in CJS format, gen-esm-wrapper simplifies adoption in ESM environments, boosting compatibility and easing the transition to modern JavaScript.
