jQuery ES6 modules example usage

jQuery source is now authored using ES6 modules. It's possible to use them directly in the browser without any build process.

To test it locally, first clone the jQuery repository:

git clone git@github.com:jquery/jquery.git

Then, write the following index.html file:

/* Helper buddy for removing async/await try/catch litter 🗑 */
function O_o(promise) {
return promise.then(data => {

async function usageExample(params) {
