@babel/plugin-syntax-bigint
Advanced tools
Package description
The @babel/plugin-syntax-bigint package allows Babel to parse code that contains the BigInt syntax. BigInt is a built-in object in JavaScript that provides a way to represent whole numbers larger than 2^53 - 1, which is the largest number JavaScript can reliably represent with the Number primitive. This plugin does not transform BigInt syntax, it only enables the parsing of it.
BigInt Syntax Parsing
This code demonstrates how a BigInt value is defined using the 'n' suffix. The plugin allows Babel to understand this syntax when parsing the code.
const bigIntValue = 123n;
This package not only allows Babel to parse BigInt syntax but also transforms BigInt literals into a format that can be used in environments that do not support BigInt natively. It is more feature-rich than @babel/plugin-syntax-bigint, which only enables parsing.
This plugin allows Babel to transform the extension of built-in classes, such as Error, Array, and others. While it does not directly deal with BigInt, it is similar in the sense that it extends the capabilities of Babel regarding the handling of built-in features.
