The rate limit can be lifted by configuring jspm with your Github credentials. To do this do the following:

  1. Go to github.com, login and click settings
  2. Click Personal access tokens and then Generate new token
  3. Copy the token and start command line inside the project folder
  4. Type jspm registry config github

During the config process, you will be asked to enter the token. Do so, and you're good to go.
