如何在 Nuxt.js 中禁用 Babel？

Question

Simple question, I know, but googling has turned up nothing. I've recently been sold on simply omitting Babel transpilation in my projects. I don't have any business need to pander to pre-ES6 era browsers in this day and age!

How do I remove babel from my Nuxt project? Is it as simple as setting babel: false somewhere? My package.json is loaded with countless '@babel' packages, I'd love to find a clean way to just remove everything Babel-related.

How can I do it?

Answer 1

I guess that this option may help: https://babeljs.io/docs/en/options#ignore

So, you could probably try this as explained in the nuxt docs :

export default {
  ...
  build: {
    babel: {
      babelrc: './.babelrc',
    }
  },
  ...
}

And into your .babelrc file, you may write

{
  "ignore": [
    "**/*"
  ]
}

Didn't tried it myself but it may be a working idea.

Answer 2

I set

build: {
    babel: {
      babelrc: false,
    },
}
