esnextes6-class
Compiles JavaScript written using ES6 classes to use ES5-compatible function syntax. For example, this:
class Person {
constructor(firstName, lastName) {
this.firstName = firstName;
this.lastName = lastName;
}
get name() {
return this.firstName + ' ' + this.lastName;
}
toString() {
return this.name;
}
}
compiles to the equivalent with Person as a function. See the esnext demo
page for more on the behavior and generated
JavaScript.
For more information about the proposed syntax, see the wiki page on classes.
