Similar packages

Other packages similar to @babel/helper-skip-transparent-expression-wrappers

@babel/traverse

Similar to @babel/helper-skip-transparent-expression-wrappers in its utility for AST manipulation, @babel/traverse provides a comprehensive set of tools for traversing, analyzing, and modifying the AST. While @babel/helper-skip-transparent-expression-wrappers focuses on skipping over transparent wrappers, @babel/traverse offers a broader range of traversal and manipulation capabilities, making it more versatile but also more complex for specific tasks.

recast

Recast is another tool for AST manipulation, offering capabilities to both parse JavaScript code into an AST and to regenerate code from modified ASTs. While it does not specifically target the skipping of transparent expression wrappers, its powerful AST manipulation features allow for similar outcomes through more manual processes. Compared to @babel/helper-skip-transparent-expression-wrappers, recast offers a more holistic approach to code transformation and AST manipulation.
