React-Router-v4 Not Working on Preact via Babel Register

Question

I am trying to setup an server rending react using react-router-4. While it works just fine on the front-end side (Webpack). It appears that preact-compat is not working when used in the server side. I am using babel-register so transpile the code.

I have a branch here for reference: https://github.com/abarcenas29/preact-sandbox-v0/tree/wip/isomorphic-react

to run: yarn run install yarn run start:prod

go to localhost:3100

Using Babel to alias a dependency doesn't make sense, because Babel does not run on your dependencies (in node_modules). Use something like module-alias instead.
