Description

### Background
[Ecmascript modules (ESM)](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Guide/Modules) are the new JavaScript standard for module loading.

Currently our project uses commonjs (CJS). [Here is a basic overview](https://gist.github.com/sindresorhus/a39789f98801d908bbc7ff3ecc99d99c) of the work involved to convert a project into ESM. I took a stab at this and it won't be trivial.

[A discussion](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/70691479/is-commonjs-require-still-used-or-deprecated) of the differences on Stack Overflow.
