Babel 7.29.0 marks the final minor release of Babel 7 as the team prepares for Babel 8.0.0. This release adds support for defining transpilation targets via a data-target attribute in @babel/standalone and introduces async API support. Babel 8.0.0-rc.1 is now available for testing, featuring ESM-only packages and requiring Node.js 20+. The team has prepared comprehensive migration guides for both users and API consumers to ease the transition from Babel 7 to 8.
