babel-preset-turbo

0.0.6 verified Sat Apr 25 auth: no javascript abandoned

An opinionated Babel preset intended for use with the Turbo build system (likely Turborepo). Current version 0.0.6, last updated in 2018. No active maintenance or recent releases. Provides a minimal configuration for Babel-transpiled code in Turbo projects. Differentiates by being purpose-built for Turbo, but has been superseded by more comprehensive presets and official Turborepo tooling.

Common errors

error Error: Cannot find module 'babel-preset-turbo' ↓

cause Package not installed or not in node_modules.

fix

Run npm install --save-dev babel-preset-turbo

error Error: Plugin/Preset files are not allowed to export objects, only functions. ↓

cause Trying to import the preset as an object instead of a string in config.

fix

Use the preset name as a string: ["babel-preset-turbo"]

Warnings

deprecated Package is unmaintained since 2018. No compatibility with modern Babel versions or TypeScript. ↓

fix Use a modern preset like @babel/preset-env or @babel/preset-react with Turborepo.

gotcha Preset does not include any transform plugins; it's essentially a no-op. May cause confusion when expected polyfills. ↓

fix Add required plugins manually or switch to a full-featured preset.

gotcha Preset name in config must be the package name string, not a function call. ↓

fix Use 'babel-preset-turbo' as a string in the presets array.
