The command babel ${path-to-input_file} --out-file ${path-to-output_file} is used to transpile or compile code written in ECMAScript 2015 (ES6) or higher versions into a backward-compatible version that can run on older browsers or environments.

Here's the breakdown of the command:

• babel: This is the babel command that initiates the transpilation process.
• ${path-to-input_file}: This is a placeholder representing the path to the input file that you want to transpile. You need to replace ${path-to-input_file} with the actual path to the file you want to transpile.
• --out-file: This option specifies that the output should be written to a file.
• ${path-to-output_file}: This is a placeholder representing the path to the output file where the transpiled code will be saved. You need to replace ${path-to-output_file} with the actual path to the desired output file.

In summary, the command takes an input file, transpiles the code using Babel, and writes the transpiled output to the specified output file.
