0.10.4 verified Fri May 01 auth: no javascript deprecated

A deprecated ES6-to-ES5 transpiler with basic support for source maps. Version 0.10.4 is the latest stable release, but the project has not been updated since 2015. It lacks modern features like JSX, TypeScript, and plugin systems that Babel offers. Released as a CLI tool with minimal documentation, it is now considered abandoned in favor of Babel.
