babel-plugin-transform-es2015-block-scoping

This package is a Babel plugin that transforms ES2015 block scoping (let and const) into ES5-compatible code. It hoists declarations to the appropriate scope, similar to what @babel/helper-hoist-variables does, but as a standalone plugin for Babel.

babel-plugin-transform-strict-mode

This package introduces strict mode to the entire file. It doesn't directly hoist variables, but by enforcing strict mode, it can prevent variable hoisting issues by catching them early during the development process.

lebab

Lebab is a tool that transforms older JavaScript into newer JavaScript. It includes features for transforming var declarations into let/const, which involves understanding and potentially altering the scope of variables, somewhat similar to the hoisting behavior of @babel/helper-hoist-variables.
