babel-plugin-transform-async-to-generator is a Babel plugin that transforms async functions into generator functions, enabling compatibility with older JavaScript environments that lack native async/await support. This plugin is crucial for projects aiming to support a wider range of browsers or Node.js versions. It ensures modern JavaScript features are transpiled into equivalent ES5 compliant code, preserving asynchronous functionality without requiring extensive polyfills. This transformation facilitates the usage of asynchronous constructs in environments where they are not natively available.
