Babel can be used to transform JSX into plain JavaScript. In React projects that use JSX, learn how this is valuable since JSX is not supported by browsers.
- [Instructor] If you're working on a React project…and you're using JSX, you can also use a Babel preset…to help you transform JSX into regular JavaScript.…First let's go ahead and install babel-preset-react…and we're going to send that a save-dev flag.…Once this is installed, we want want to install react…and react-dom, and we'll just save those.…
Perfect, so the other thing I want to do here real quickly…is install our package globally,…and the package I want to install is called serve.…Serve is going to help us just run a lightweight server…on a computer so that we don't have to worry about…opening files that might have cross-origin problems.…So let's go ahead and do that.…So we're going to run sudo npm install serve -g,…and it'll prompt me for my password,…and if you're on a PC,…then you can just run your command prompt…as an administrator, and that should work for you as well.…
Cool, so we'll look at that in just a minute.…The next thing I want to do here is…I want to make some adjustments to my index.js file.…
