babel-plugin-transform-hoist-loose-functions

This plugin hoists functions in loose-mode to their enclosing function or program scope.

This plugin was primarily developed to support using babel-minify on non-strict ES5 and below. Currently babel-minify has problems with non-strict nested functions.

function foo() {
  if (a) {
    function bar() {}
  }
}

Out

function foo() {
  function bar() {}
 
  if (a) {}
}
