Unexpected reserved word: import - Webpack, Babel, Node, React

After adding SSR to my app, I ended up using some ES6 in my server's index.js file, and now I'm having a problem getting it to run on Heroku again.

I've done a lot of research and understand that using ES6 requires babel to transpile the server file, but pretty much everyone's recommendations I can find typically ended up with requiring the .babelrc file, or specifying/installing the presets, but from what I can tell, I've already done this.

I'm finding that the more I try to troubleshoot this, the more confused I'm becoming, so I wanted to reach out on here for some discussion :) thanks everyone (Full code: https://github.com/trm313/mern-boiler)

Of the following scripts, "npm run start" works fine locally, but fails when uploaded to Heroku. It complains that I need to use the 'babel-cli' package instead of 'babel', which I'm already doing.. (Same for "start-dev")
