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…

I’ve been doing a bunch of AST work the last few days, and I’ve really been blown away by how good the @babeljs tools are. babel/parser babel/traverse babel/template babel/generator ❤️ Thank you.

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

I got so inspired by speaking with @NicoloRibaudo about his experience maintaining @babeljs. I'm impressed how they managed to hire engineers to work on Babel out of OSS donations! Make sure you don't miss this episode.
Today, we have the opportunity to spotlight one key project of the web ecosystem: @Babeljs! We have the pleasure to have @nicoloRibaudo on stage, to tell us his story as a Babel maintainer, how it's funded and what's next for Babel! thebakery.dev/66
