What is Some Sweet.js macros?
es6-macros is a collection of sweet.js macros that implement ES6 syntactic features for ES5 JavaScript environments. It allows developers to write code using modern ES6 syntax like destructuring, classes, and arrow functions, then compiles it to ES5-compatible JavaScript that runs everywhere. This bridges the gap between modern JavaScript development and production environments that lack full ES6 support.
JavaScript developers working in environments limited to ES5 compatibility who want to use modern ES6 syntax features. This includes teams maintaining legacy codebases or targeting older browsers and runtimes.
Developers choose es6-macros because it provides a lightweight, compile-time approach to using ES6 features without runtime overhead or polyfills. Unlike transpilers that transform entire codebases, it offers selective syntax enhancement through sweet.js macros, giving developers fine-grained control over which ES6 features to adopt.
