WH AT IS https://babeljs.io/ “A JavaScript compiler a toolchain that is mainly used to convert ES 2015+ code into a backwards compatible version of JavaScript in current and older browsers or environments”. - Babel Website “A compiler, an open source project community, part of the JavaScript community.” - Henry Zhu
Jed Schmidt @jedschmidt · May 17, 2017 Replying to @dan_abramov it’s reassuring that @left_pad saw it coming. henryzoo.com/babelplugin-s… Kent C. Dodds @kentcdodds Love that slide. I just had a thought though. It’s probably more like: Babel : JavaScript :: jQuery : HTML Or Babel : AST :: jQuery : DOM 2 3:58 AM - May 17, 2017 See Kent C. Dodds’s other Tweets

WH AT’S G O O D F O R B A B E L CONTRIBUTION? A open-sourced JavaScript compiler that tech leading companies and countless others adopt to ship software for the web. A great position to be an educational tool for programmers so they can continue to learn how JavaScript works. The warmth of welcome to Babel open source community. Learn many other concepts such as ASTs, compilers, language speci cation, and more.

🎉 The Brian Ng @existentialism Huge props to @sujinleeme and @MarinaGJCho (our @RailsGirlsSoC team) for integrating time travel into the @babeljs repl!

Now, AST Panel is ready to merge! integrate ASTExplorer into Repl https://github.com/sujinleeme/babel-website/blob/ASTOptions/js/repl/ASTPanel.js Felix Kling @fkling42 · Sep 12, 2018 Small update about astexplorer.com : Tree view now scrolls horizontally so nested nodes are easier to inspect; updated babeleslint to v9; updated @babeljs transformer (and parser) to v7. I’m working on making the deployment and update process more automatic. Henry @left_pad nice! @sujinleeme and @MarinaGJCho landed a PR github.com/babel/website/… regarding a “time travel” mode for @RailsGirlsSoC, we also wanted an AST output; would you have time to discuss implementation (or maybe if we could extract it as a component, would be great to re-use)?
