babel-polyfill packages (@nicolo-ribaudo)ts-node is a TypeScript execution environment and REPL for Node.js. It allows you to run TypeScript code directly without precompiling it. Compared to @babel/node, ts-node is specifically designed for TypeScript, whereas @babel/node is for JavaScript with ES6+ syntax.
esm is a fast, production-ready ES module loader for Node.js. It allows you to use ES modules in Node.js without needing to transpile them. While @babel/node focuses on compiling and running ES6+ syntax, esm focuses on providing native support for ES modules.
Sucrase is a super-fast alternative to Babel that focuses on compiling modern JavaScript syntax. It is designed to be faster than Babel by focusing on a smaller set of transformations. While @babel/node provides a comprehensive solution for compiling and running ES6+ code, Sucrase aims for speed and simplicity.
