babel:transpile

The command "babel ${filename}" is likely a command used in a build system or development environment that uses Babel, a popular JavaScript compiler. Here's an explanation of each component:

• "babel": This is the command to run the Babel compiler.
• "${filename}": This is a placeholder for the actual filename of the JavaScript file you want to compile. It could be replaced with an actual filename, like "script.js".

When this command is executed, Babel will attempt to parse and transform the specified JavaScript file (specified by "${filename}") according to the configuration defined in your project. The exact transformations and plugins used depend on how Babel is configured.

Babel is commonly used to convert modern JavaScript syntax (such as using arrow functions or import/export statements) into a compatible version that can be executed in older environments or browsers that lack support for newer features.
