This package provides TypeScript definitions for @babel/core, enabling strong typing within TypeScript projects that utilize Babel's core functionality. It offers interfaces, types, and enums that mirror the API of @babel/core, allowing developers to accurately type Babel configuration options, plugin implementations, and transformation results. Using these definitions improves code maintainability and reduces runtime errors by catching type-related issues during development.
