NodeJS/Blog: Write a short tutorial about configuring Babel 6 for NodeJs

1) Objective

At FOSSASIA we are working a lot with Javascript. Therefore we would like to work with students who have a good understanding of JS tools. Babel is a Javascript transpiler which can be used to translate ES2015 and post-ES2015 features to currently supported ES5 code.

2) Requirement

  • The tutorial must describe how to setup Babel 6 for NodeJS applications.
  • The configuration must support all stage-0 features available in Babel 6.
  • Using this configuration, it must be possible to run a NodeJS app written using ES7 features with node app.js command.

Note: The requirement is for server side nodejs applications so do not to use webpack or browserify.

3) Expected outcome

  • Tutorial on blog about configuration of Babel for NodeJS
