Introducing the Socket Python SDK
The initial version of the Socket Python SDK is now on PyPI, enabling developers to more easily interact with the Socket REST API in Python projects.
@babel/node
Advanced tools
@babel/node is a command-line tool that allows you to use Babel to compile and run JavaScript code on the fly. It is particularly useful for running scripts and applications written in ES6+ syntax without needing to precompile them.
Running ES6+ scripts
This feature allows you to run JavaScript files that use ES6+ syntax directly. The `babel-node` command compiles the code on the fly and executes it.
babel-node script.js
REPL with ES6+ support
You can start a REPL (Read-Eval-Print Loop) with ES6+ support by simply running `babel-node` without any arguments. This allows you to interactively write and test ES6+ code.

Using Babel plugins and presets
You can specify Babel plugins and presets to customize the compilation process. For example, using the `@babel/preset-env` preset ensures that your code is transpiled to be compatible with the current environment.
babel-node --presets @babel/preset-env script.js
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.
Babel command line
