babel-preset-kyt

An opinionated Babel preset for kyt, the NY Times frontend toolkit. Current stable version is 1.1.21 (last released May 2025). It provides a pre-configured Babel setup for React and TypeScript projects, supporting both ESM and CJS modules. Key differentiators: tightly integrated with kyt for zero-config transpilation, includes presets for environment-specific builds (browser, node), and handles module transforms. Alternatives like @babel/preset-env and @babel/preset-react require manual configuration.
