Better local require() paths for Node.js

Problem

When the directory structure of your Node.js application (not library!) has some depth, you end up with a lot of annoying relative paths in your require calls like:

const Article = require('../../../../app/models/article');

Those suck for maintenance and they're ugly.

	import React from "react"
	import { Route, Switch } from "react-router-dom"

	const AppRoute = ({ component: Component, layout: Layout, ...rest }) => (
	<Route {...rest} render={props => (
	<Layout>
	<Component {...props} />
	</Layout>
	)} />
	)

	import React, { Component } from "react"
	import ReactDOM from "react-dom"

	import { Switch, Case } from "switch_case"

	class App extends Component {
	constructor() {
	super()
	this.state = {
	value: false

	// === Arrays

	var [a, b] = [1, 2];
	console.log(a, b);
	//=> 1 2


	// Use from functions, only select from pattern
	var foo = () => [1, 2, 3];

	IE6 Only
	==================
	_selector {...}

	IE6 & IE7
	==================
	*html or { _property: }

	IE7 Only
	==================

	<!DOCTYPE html>
	<html>
	<head>
	<title>Box Shadow</title>

	<style>
	.box {
	height: 150px;
	width: 300px;
	margin: 20px;
