babel-node-ts

library1.0.3jsnpmunverified

A lightweight CLI wrapper that runs babel-node with --extensions ts,tsx by default, eliminating the need to manually specify TypeScript file extensions. Version 1.0.3 is the latest stable release. This package is no longer actively maintained and is considered deprecated in favor of modern alternatives like ts-node or tsx. It has a single peer dependency on @babel/node ^7.2.2. Key differentiator: simple extension auto-adding with no configuration.
