Babel's monorepo is mostly written in TypeScript, but most of our runtime helpers are still written in JS. Do you want to help us migrating them? 😁 We've split them in 13 groups, to enable working on it in parallel. Take a look at the GitHub issue! github.com/babel/babel/issue…

Babel plugins don't necessarily have to be useful, they can also be fun!
I wrote a Babel plugin to translate Gen Z / internet slang into valid JS! Your new Boolean values are cap and onGod, there's lowkey.sus instead of console.warn, and you can yeet errors. Find it on npm: npmjs.com/package/babel-plug… Props to Justin Poliachik for the idea

If you are using `@​babel/preset-env` with "defaults" or "not dead" in your query, this will likely affect you! You can run `npx browserslist "...your query..."` to see which browsers you are targeting, or you can enable the `debug` option of the preset. babeljs.io/docs/en/babel-pre…
Today, I will kill Internet Explorer. Browserslist 4.21 is ready with many new features. But the main change is that IE 11 will be added to `dead` query and removed from the default browsers. Just need to find a cute hedgehog GIF to fit @Browserslist feed cute style.
