@babel/template is a powerful code generation tool for Babel. It simplifies creating AST (Abstract Syntax Tree) nodes programmatically. Instead of manually constructing complex AST structures, you can use template literals with placeholders to define the desired code structure. This significantly enhances developer productivity by making code generation more readable and maintainable, crucial for Babel plugins and transformations. It reduces boilerplate and improves the clarity of AST manipulation logic.
