@dhruvdutt just to clarify things, are you still working on this issue.

[dhruvdutt]

Sorry for the delay.
Most of the things seem alright. I'm still learning ES6. Is there anything to do except transforming normal functions into arrow functions?

[rajikaimal]

It's fine, take your time, we need quality over quantity. Basically you can use arrow functions as a short hand syntax for normal functions, but you need to be careful about the context since arrow functions takes up the parent context. Also you can features like default arguments in ES6 within functions.

Also worth mentioning is that ES6 has a new class syntax that's way nicer. Import and export have changed as well, you can do, for example, export class MyClass instead of modules.export = {}. Read more about it here.

@rafaelklaessen You can take this up if you wish.
I have been really busy lately with academics work.

[rafaelklaessen]

Okay, I will. I've never worked with React though, so it will take a while.

[rafaelklaessen]

@rajikaimal I've created a pull request with the ES6 port.
