tasks/config/babel.js

This file configures a Grunt task called "babel".

This task is used to <a href="https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/transcompile" target="_blank">transpile</a> any <a href="http://es6-features.org" target="_blank">ES8, ES7, and ES6 syntax</a> in your front-end JavaScript files for compatibility with older browsers.

(By default, only .js files in the assets/js/ folder and subfolders will be transpiled. If you need other things transpiled, such as assets/dependencies/, you'll need to modify the configuration of this task accordingly.)

For additional usage documentation, see grunt-babel.
