javascript-transpiled

name	javascript-transpiled
description	JavaScript transpiled (Babel/TypeScript output), build targets, source maps, and tree-shaking. Use when working with transpiled JS output, webpack/babel/esbuild builds, source maps, or build-tool output.

Javascript Transpiled

Keep It Simple (KISS)

• The transpiled output is generated code - do NOT edit it directly. Edit the source.
• If you're writing JS that targets transpilation: write clean modern ES6+ and let the build tool handle it.
• Avoid manual polyfills - let the transpiler/bundler inject them.
• Always use the latest version of packages (install via packagename@latest)

Build Conventions

• Output directory: dev/ or dist/ - never commit these to git.
• Source maps enabled for debugging: --sourcemap or devtool: 'source-map'.
• Minification for production, not development.
• Tree-shaking: use ES module imports so unused code is eliminated.

Code Style

• Prefer public and private variable definitions above the constructor
• Same rules as JavaScript ES modules - KISS, no overengineering.
• Avoid dynamic imports in transpiled code unless explicitly needed (they break static analysis).
• Prefer import/export syntax (ESM) over require/module.exports (CJS).
• async/await over raw promises.
