I&#x27;m currently doing that for a project, but I&#x27;m about to change things up and use Babel anyways, for the following reasons:<p>- my project contains jsx files, which currently are compiled into .js files which feels a bit messy.<p>- I&#x27;m seriously considering using ES7&#x27;s async&#x2F;await functionality, which is not supported by node yet.<p>- and most importantly: node&#x27;s ES6 support is incomplete. In particular, I miss default function parameters and destructuring assigment.<p>Using Babel would solve all these issues, and I could simply remove Babel once support is sufficient.
