Babel 7.22.0 is out, with parsing/transform support for the Explicit Resource Management proposal, including both the sync and async variants, and with parsing support for the Import Attributes (an evolution of the old Import Assertions proposal).

Babel's platform is a resource for JavaScript developers, offering insights into JavaScript transpilation, ECMAScript standards, and modern JavaScript features. Through articles, documentation, and plugins, Babel offers insights into transforming JavaScript code to ensure compatibility with older browsers and environments. Developers can learn about using Babel presets, plugins, and configuration options to write modern JavaScript code and support a wide range of platforms.

Babel 7.22.0 is out, with parsing/transform support for the Explicit Resource Management proposal. We also updated our implementation of decorators following some changes in the proposal. You can donate to us on our Open Collective and, better yet, work with us on the implementation of new ECMAScript proposals directly.
