Lots of error when installing npm:material-components-web

I believe that material-components-web is written in a ES2015 module style which causes lots of issues when I tried to include it in a new jspm / system.js based website.

lots of errors logged in the .jspm-errors files.
"Unexpected reserved word export"
"Unexpected reserved word import"
etc

Do I need to flag these modules as being 'esm' format?

meta: {
'@material/*': {
format: 'esm'
}
}

I will try this tonight... maybe this will give system.js the information it needs.
I am thinking I need to transpile on the browser while in development but transpile and bundle for production. Does that sound about right?

It should just work out of the box if you're using transpiler: 'plugin-babel' or transpiler: 'plugin-traceur' or transpiler: 'plugin-typescript', what version of jspm are you using?
