Looking forward for the TC39 meeting this week in Scottsdale, AZ. What are you most excited for to see evolving in JS?

One of the reasons I Like @babeljs is that it allows devs to get real experience with a proposed lang feature before it’s implemented. Developers are shaping the future specification of JS and that’s a good thing

Jest 24 updated to Babel 7 internally, so no more "babel bridge" hack should be needed (`babel-core@^7.0.0-bridge.0`) 😁
🚨 JEST 24 IS OUT NOW 🚨
Check out the sweet new site jestjs.io

maybe we'll do a livestream next time although not sure how interesting it would be! Maybe explaining the process would help us realize the many times we should streamline/automate though

Thanks also to @NicoloRibaudo @left_pad @svensauleau

Wonder if internationalization is the most common use-case for most companies to write/use a custom @babeljs plugin? What else is everyone doing (I guess css-in-js is similar)?

So @AMPhtml (thanks @cramforce) just doubled their yearly donation to be a Base Support Sponsor ($2k/m) for @babeljs!!! Looking forward to more companies following suit in supporting the projects they depend on. Their post on 2018: amphtml.wordpress.com/2019/0…

Writing simple plugins for @babeljs is awesome! I just wrote a super simple thingy that transforms NumericalLiteral `1` into `2`. Fun! My repo here: github.com/chrisisler/babel-…

So @existentialism and I did our first stream! Also linked to the full thing if anyone wanted more context! Let us know if you have ideas for other topics to talk about: Babel related or just open source
Stream: twitch.tv/videos/361779235

Haven't done a stream a while but it might be good to try again: making a pull request to add TypeScript import() syntax to @babel/generator (seems small enough)?
Will probably write down a few maintainer things along the way that might be helpful (hackmd.io/Zr-LconfQwmBzh5Ruc…)

Let's maybe try for tomorrow 10am EST? Then @existentialism can join me at twitch.tv/left_pad and we can chat
How do you stream multiple people anyway? Just a hangout/skype?
