Author message:

renamed to @kensho-technologies/babel-preset

babel-preset-kensho

This Babel 7 preset transpiles ES2018, JSX, and selected language proposals. It also includes optimizations for specific contexts.

Install

npm install -D babel-preset-kensho

Usage

You can set up Babel transpilation in several ways (e.g. via CLI, or through webpack). Choose a method, and configure Babel to include the preset, e.g. in a .babelrc:

{
  "presets": ["kensho"]
}

Options

The preset can be configured using several options. Note that some options' defaults depend on the Babel environment, which may be one of: development | production | test | cjs | esm

emotion

false | options
Default: false

Whether to enable support for CSS-in-JS via Emotion. If an options object is passed, it is forwarded to the Emotion preset. This option requires an additional dependency on @emotion/core.

include

Array<string|RegExp>
Default: ['@babel/plugin-proposal-optional-chaining', '@babel/plugin-proposal-nullish-coalescing-operator']

List of plugins to always include. Forwarded to the corresponding option in @babel/preset-env.

loose

true | false
Default: true

Whether to enable loose mode in all presets/plugins that support this option.

modules

false | 'commonjs'
Default: 'commonjs' in test and cjs envs, false otherwise

Whether to compile ESM imports/exports to another module format.

// false:
import foo from "./foo";
 
// 'commonjs' (roughly):
const foo = require("./foo");

react

false | options
Default: {}

Whether to transpile JSX expressions. If an options object is passed, it is forwarded to the React preset.

reactRefresh

false | options
Default: {} in development env if react is enabled

Whether to transform React function components for fast refresh. If an options object is passed, it is forwarded to the React Refresh plugin. The list of available options is not currently documented.

This option should only ever be enabled in development. It also requires bundler integration because the output code references global variables containing the Refresh runtime. If this integration cannot be added to a project's development environment, this option should be disabled.

runtime

true | false
Default: true

Whether to enable the Babel runtime transform. This is encouraged to reduce bundle size, but requires adding @babel/runtime as a dependency.

targets

See @babel/preset-env options documentation.
Default: current node version in test environment, inferred from browserslist config otherwise

The transpilation targets to pass to @babel/preset-env.

typescript

false | options
Default: {}

Whether to enable TypeScript support. If an options object is passed, it's passed to the TypeScript preset.
