var profile = dom( "div", null,
  dom("img", { src: "avatar.png", className: "profile" }),
  dom("h3", null, [user.firstName, user.lastName].join(" "))
);

Installation

npm install --save-dev babel-plugin-transform-react-jsx

Usage

Via .babelrc (Recommended)

.babelrc

Without options:

{
  "plugins": ["transform-react-jsx"]
}

With options:

{
  "plugins": [
    ["transform-react-jsx", {
      "pragma": "dom" // default pragma is React.createElement
    }]
  ]
}

Via CLI

babel --plugins transform-react-jsx script.js

Via Node API

require("babel-core").transform("code", {
  plugins: ["transform-react-jsx"]
});

Options

pragma

string, defaults to React.createElement.

Replace the function used when compiling JSX expressions.

Note that the @jsx React.DOM pragma has been deprecated as of React v0.12

useBuiltIns

boolean, defaults to false.

When spreading props, use Object.assign directly instead of Babel's extend helper.
