Babel file is copied without being transformed

Question

I have this code:

\"use strict\";

import browserSync from \"browser-sync\";
import httpProxy from \"http-proxy\";

let proxy = httpProxy.createProxyServer({         


        

Answer 1

I had the same problem with a different cause:

The code I was trying to load was not under the package directory, and Babel does not default to transpiling outside the package directory.

I solved it by moving the imported code, but perhaps I could have also used some inclusion statement in the Babel configuration.
