babel-walk provides a simple and efficient way to traverse the Abstract Syntax Tree (AST) generated by Babel. It offers a concise API for walking the AST based on node types. This allows developers to easily analyze, modify, or extract information from code represented as an AST. With its focus on speed and ease of use, babel-walk simplifies AST traversal tasks critical for code analysis, transformations, and related tooling.
