This seems to be overlooked, I was wondering why the original author is no longer involved.

Babel, Rome, Deno, are all transpilers the tech isn't as unique as it once was. Things come and go in JS land, and Babel will go the way of Dodo.js




Deno is a full server-side JavaScript VM - it doesn't even solve the same problem as Babel...


Technically Deno supports TS and I assume that is a transpilation step to JS. Not sure if they use TSC or their own “compiler” however. But it is baked into Deno at some point.

Come on, you were in the right, but now you've lost the argument. This is not the place for this kind of discussion.


Just to add insult to injury, read what sebastian says here: https://twitter.com/sebmck/status/1392019586833387522

Relevant: > I'm just going to be explicit. In 2020, Henry created 12 issues, commented 25 times, and created 29 pull requests. This is across all Babel orgs.
