A CLI codemod tool that automatically upgrades JavaScript projects from Babel 6 to Babel 7 by rewriting package. dependencies, config files, and scripts. It can preview changes as a diff or write them directly, optionally running npm/yarn install afterward.

Use cases

• upgrade a project from Babel 6 to Babel 7
• rename babel packages to @babel scoped packages automatically
• update package. devDependencies for a Babel migration
• fix mocha and jest scripts after a Babel upgrade
• preview a diff of Babel migration changes before applying

When to choose

• you are migrating a legacy codebase from Babel 6 to Babel 7
• you want to automate package renames and config updates instead of doing them by hand

When to avoid

• you are already on Babel 7 or newer
• you need a general-purpose dependency upgrade tool rather than a Babel-specific codemod
• you need actively maintained tooling with guaranteed fixes
